U.S. stock futures were flat on Tuesday after a bounce back on Monday. Futures of all four benchmark indices were mixed in premarket trading.
On Monday, stocks continued their recovery from last week&#8217;s sell-off, which had pushed the S&amp;P 500 into correction territory amid growing concerns over the U.S. economy&#8217;s ability to withstand President Donald Trump&#8216;s trade war.
The two-day meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee will begin today as they discuss and announce their decision on interest rates slated to be released tomorrow. Chairman Jerome Powell will address a press conference on Wednesday afternoon.
The 10-year Treasury yield stood at 4.31%, while the two-year yield was at 4.04%. According <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">to</a> the CME Group's FedWatch tool, there is a 99% chance that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates unchanged tomorrow.

Cues From The Last Session
Real estate, energy, and consumer staples stocks led Monday&#8217;s market rally, with significant gains across the S&amp;P 500. Conversely, consumer discretionary stocks dipped.
This sector-driven strength propelled the Dow Jones higher extending the market&#8217;s recovery after last week&#8217;s sharp declines, which saw the Dow lose 3.1% and the S&amp;P 500 drop over 2%.
In company news, Guess? Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GES#NYSE">GES</a>) shares surged 30% on acquisition interest, and Baidu Inc.

Insights From Analysts
The market sentiment seemed to be recovering on Monday after the S&amp;P 500 index recorded an upmove in 90% of its issues for two consecutive days. Ryan Detrick of Carson Research highlighted that this was a rare occurrence when 90% of S&amp;P 500 constituents rose back-to-back for two days.
According to the historical data shared by him, this has only happened 12 times since 1972 and the index has been higher in all instances after a year.

Meanwhile, Liz Ann Sonders and Kevin Gordon of Charles Schwab said in a note "The only thing we can be certain of is that things will remain uncertain for the time being."
They quoted the data from a few years ago when confidence metrics went through a soft patch giving a &#8220;false&#8221; recessionary signal amid strong underlying growth and the hard data. They termed it as a &#8220;vibecession.&#8221;
Whereas they termed the current period as &#8220;vibespansion," which was evident a few months ago, however, many strong sentiment metrics are receding. "If the soft data stay soft long enough, we see more risk of the hard data catching down," the note added.
Edward Yardeni or Yardeni Research highlighted that the markets could have bottomed out on Thursday last week and rose on Friday and Monday because there was no comment from Trump on tariffs.
He said, "From a sentiment perspective, it is possible that Thursday's selloff followed by Friday's rally marked a bottom in the correction. We will be more inclined to call a bottom when we see the stock market move higher on a day or days when Trump blusters about tariffs again, which he did not do on Friday."
"Any day without a Trump tariff comment is a good day for the market. We know that on April 2 there will be lots of reciprocal tariffs imposed on many more nations by the administration, undoubtedly eliciting lots of comments from Tariff Man," he added.

At a current reading of 22.1, the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Monday, versus a prior reading of 20.9.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

IHS Holding, HealthEquity And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Tuesday

IHS Holding Limited, (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IHS#NYSE">IHS</a>) ("IHS Towers"), one of the largest independent owners, operators and developers of shared communications infrastructure in the world by tower count, has signed a definitive agreement to sell IHS Towers' 70% interest in IHS Kuwait Limited ("IHS Kuwait") including its approximate 1,675 sites and an additional approximately 700 sites managed in Kuwait to Zain Group. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including government and regulatory approvals, and is expected to close in the first half of 2025.
The terms of the transaction reflect an enterprise value of $230 million for the IHS Kuwait portfolio, implying a transaction multiple of 14.2x based on an estimated IHS Kuwait Adjusted EBITDA after leases. This represents a significant premium compared to the current valuation multiple of the IHS Towers group.
Entering into this agreement is part of IHS Towers' ongoing strategic review targeted at shareholder value-creation options. As previously indicated, the proceeds will primarily be utilized to reduce company debt.

IHS Holding (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ihs#NYSE">IHS</a>) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.04 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.13 per share. This compares to loss of $0.27 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -69.23%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this telecommunications infrastructure company would post earnings of $0.04 per share when it actually produced a loss of $0.07, delivering a surprise of -275%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates just once.
IHS Holding, which belongs to the Zacks Communication - Infrastructure industry, posted revenues of $435.38 million for the quarter ended June 2024, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 5.81%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $546.2 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock&#39;s immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management&#39;s commentary on the earnings call.
IHS Holding shares have lost about 39.1% since the beginning of the year versus the S&amp;P 500&#39;s gain of 12.1%.
<h2>What&#39;s Next for IHS Holding?</h2>
While IHS Holding has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors&#39; minds is: what&#39;s next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company&#39;s earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for IHS Holding: mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company&#39;s just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.15 on $430.18 million in revenues for the coming quarter and -$4.23 on $1.72 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Communication - Infrastructure is currently in the top 19% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
Another stock from the broader Zacks Computer and Technology sector, HP (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hpq#NYSE">HPQ</a>), has yet to report results for the quarter ended July 2024. The results are expected to be released on August 28.
This personal computer and printer maker is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.86 per share in its upcoming report, which represents no change from the year-ago quarter. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.
HP&#39;s revenues are expected to be $13.31 billion, up 0.9% from the year-ago quarter.
