The Q2 2025 earnings season is winding down, but several notable releases are still scheduled for this week. These include AST SpaceMobile (ASTS), Oklo (OKLO), Monday.com (MNDY), CoreWeave (CRWV), Cisco Systems (CSCO), and Applied Materials (AMAT), among others.
Looking ahead, key inflation data could impact the market. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) on Tuesday and Producer Price Index (PPI) on Thursday will guide Fed rate expectations, and higher numbers could stall the rally.
