U.S. equity markets surged higher during Tuesday's session, with S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 futures reaching new all-time highs. The rally was largely driven by robust corporate earnings, as 85% of reporting S&P 500 companies have beaten expectations, including notable results from DuPont and Anheuser-Busch. Economic data offered a mixed picture; the ISM Services Index fell to 53.6, while JOLTS job openings remained little changed alongside a significant jump in the March hiring rate. In the options market, short-term Russell call volume exploded, and ES futures saw unusual activity with 4,000 contracts trading on the Friday 7,375 calls ahead of the non-farm payrolls report. Additionally, crypto markets rallied following a legislative breakthrough on the Clarity Act, sending Bitcoin past the 80,000 mark.
