As for Club earnings, we got positive results from life sciences company Danaher and industrial firm Dover. Ford was a major disappointment and its nearly 20% stock drop for the week was the worst performer in the portfolio. In the week ahead, it's going to be another big week of earnings with the four mega-cap names and 10 other Club names set to report. Linde : We're looking for more of the same — steady earnings growth; 6% is the Street estimate.

Since Harris kicked off her presidential campaign, there’s been a string of good news for the US economy. Harris will have Biden’s mostly strong economy to run on. By June 2021, Biden’s sixth month in office, the nation’s inflation rate jumped to more than 5%. After the Federal Reserve hiked interest rate hikes to a 23-year high to stamp out inflation, the economy — eventually — started to run at a slower pace. The Biden administration canceled $168 billion in student loan debt for 4.8 million Americans.

Federal prosecutors have criminally charged the well-known short seller and analyst Andrew Left with securities fraud related to allegedly using his public platform to illegally profit to the tune of at least $16 million from manipulating stock market activity contrary to positions he presented to the public from 2018 through 2023. The indictment notes that Left is a frequent guest commentator on CNBC and other business cable news channels. Prosecutors said that Left used Citron's online platform to comment on publicly traded companies and claim that their stock was incorrectly valued by the market. Left, who previously lived in Beverly Hills, California, is charged in the indictment with one count of engaging in a securities fraud scheme, 17 counts of securities fraud, and one count of making false statements to federal investigators. If convicted, he would face a maximum possible sentence of 25 years in prison for the securities fraud scheme alone.

☆ The stock market is gearing up for its rate cut era

Data Thursday showed the economy expanded at a robust 2.8% annualized rate during the second quarter, blowing past economists’ expectations. While the Fed has penciled in just one rate cut for this year, traders are betting on up to three, according to the CME FedWatch Tool. While the market was broadly higher on Friday, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq on Wednesday logged their worst daily performances since 2022. Shares of smaller companies tend to perform poorly when rates are high, since they have more floating rate debt than their larger counterparts. Investors are also picking at other areas of the market poised to gain when rates come down.

For the first half of this year, technology stocks — especially those linked to the expected boom in artificial intelligence — propelled major indexes around the world higher. The tech sector has risen faster than any other sector and twice as quickly as all of them this year, except for communications companies, which include the likes of Amazon. Just a handful of stocks accounted for nearly two-thirds of the gains in the S&P 500 this year. Shares of businesses that could benefit from this growth — smaller companies, banks and real estate businesses — have all rallied in the past two weeks, while Big Tech has stumbled. It might not be a smooth transition — as trading on Wednesday, when stocks had their worst day since late 2022, showed.

☆ CNBC's Inside India newsletter: The tax with potential side effects

Despite its progressive intentions, the tax failed to raise sufficient revenue for the monarch, as people boarded up their windows to lower their tax liability. Window tax was a property tax based on the number of windows in a house. In addition, the minister also lifted capital gains for stock market investors who cash in within a year from 15% to 20%. While the tax raises more than £3 billion ($3.9 billion) annually, it has given birth to far riskier forms of speculation while simultaneously hurting the stock market. However, given the lofty valuations that Indian stock markets currently trade, the tax to skim the excesses might be a positive development over the longer term.
