Morning Bid: Volatile news, not markets

While the Federal Reserve is almost certain to raise interest rates again on Wednesday, the move could be its last. So in a holiday-strewn month around the world, the VIX (.VIX) - Wall St's so-called 'fear gauge' of the implied stock market volatility for the month ahead - hit its lowest level on Monday since November 2021. Even though it ticked back up a bit above 16 overnight, it remains three full points below its 33-year historical average. For macro markets, the Fed decision is complicated by the debt ceiling and banking backdrop. March job openings numbers later on Tuesday will give an indication of just how tight the labor market remains.
Stock futures are modestly lower Monday night as investors prepared for the Federal Reserve's May policy meeting to kick off. But the muted activity seen in Monday's regular session is typical in the days leading up to a Fed policy meeting, according to Jamie Cox, managing partner for Harris Financial Group. Members of the Federal Open Market Committee will begin their policy meeting Tuesday, with an announcement on interest rates and a subsequent press conference expected Wednesday. "Markets just sit around and wait until the Fed meeting begins, and then the positioning starts," Cox said. Beyond the start of the Fed meeting Tuesday, investors will watch for data on job openings, factory orders and light vehicle sales on the economic front.
One metric to determine if a stock is overbought or oversold is the "relative strength index," which measures the magnitude and speed of price moves. An equity with a 14-day RSI under 30 is considered oversold, which means it may be an opportunity to buy. Meanwhile, those with a 14-day RSI above 70 are considered overbought — and the names could be due for a pause. CNBC Pro screened for S & P 500 stocks in both the overbought and oversold territory, based on their RSI. Valero Energy has the lowest 14-day RSI on the list, at 16.67.

Molson Coors has been told to pull an advert that implies rival light beers "taste like water."

The 15-second spot shows a man cycling up a hill before stopping and pouring an "extremely lite beer" on himself.

Nvidia and software stock Ansys were the best performers this week, rising more than 7% each. Analysts see the stock trading in a tight range going forward, however, with the average price target for Nvidia implying upside of just 5%, FactSet data shows. Analysts expected earnings of $2.82 per share on revenue of $647 million, according to StreetAccount. The company's first-quarter earnings per share forecast of $1.53 to $1.71 after adjustments also topped a consensus estimate of $1.41 per share. Earlier this week, Wells Fargo analyst Michael Turrin said the stock could gain roughly 20% going forward.
Molson Coors should no longer compare its rivals' beers to drinking water, a regulatory body says. "We believe light beer should taste like beer, not water, and we are well within our right to share that belief," a spokesperson said. "We have appealed the NAD's decision and will proudly continue to make light beer that tastes like beer." The ad highlighted the fact that Anheuser-Busch's Bud Light isn't made with corn syrup, which Molson Coors said unfairly targeted Miller Lite and Coors Light. The court sided with Molson Coors, but a federal appeals court later overturned the ruling in favor of Anheuser-Busch.

Brewer Anheuser-Busch InBev SA has scored at least a temporary win in the long-running battle over light beer brands’ marketing claims.

A look at the day ahead in U.S. and global markets from Mike Dolan. If investors' big concern about the new year is that the U.S. economy is running too hot, then February's flash business surveys from around the world will do little to soothe nerves. U.S. markets return from Monday's Presidents Day holiday and the early readout on this month's factory and service sector activity tops the slate. Aside from Tuesday's business surveys, a reality check for U.S. retailers is due from Walmart and Home Depot's quarterly earnings - holding last month's red-hot retail numbers up to the light. In banking, HSBC (HSBA.L) rose 1.5% - bouncing back from early losses after announcing a surge in its quarterly profit.

But the Oracle of Omaha has missed out on this year’s stock market rally. Buffett, in fact, has promoted that idea to investors many times, arguing that most individual stock pickers will not be able to beat the market. And to his credit, that usually pays dividends: Berkshire stock was up 3% last year in a down market. “High rates of inflation create a tax on capital that makes much corporate investment unwise,” Buffett said in his 1980 shareholder letter to Berkshire investors. Investors will get several more clues about consumer spending this week when several top retailers report earnings.

In addition to the core PCE price index, we're going to be looking closely at the housing and utilities component. Lastly, the January producer price index came in hotter than expected, rising 0.7% from December versus expectations for 0.4% increase.
