- S&P 500 logged its third consecutive weekly gain, per the Wall Street Journal, with Wall Street broadly hanging near its records according to AP reporting
- CNBC's Michael Santoli questioned whether the earnings bonanza that lifted the market to records is "all that it appears to be," introducing a skeptical counterweight to the rally narrative
Why it matters: Three consecutive weekly S&P 500 gains place the index at record highs, yet at least one major outlet is flagging that the earnings underpinning may be softer than headline optimism suggests — meaning investors buying at all-time highs face a gap between price action and underlying profit quality.
