The first trading session of the week begins with slight rises for most Wall Street indices. Investors' attention is mainly focused on the publication of Q1 2023 financial results, with the current focus on companies in the financial sector. Investors also reacted today to the NY Fed's reading, which comes out for April at 10.8 points against an expectation of -18 points and the previous level of -24.6 points. The magnitude of the surprise is indeed considerable. It is the highest reading since July last year. It is worth mentioning that the ISM for manufacturing remains below 50 points.
