Moving on, here’s what you missed this morning:

  • 🟩 | Market Snapshot: Stocks soared higher this morning, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq jumping roughly 2% higher. This comes as large-cap tech stocks that got hit hard by a sell-off are now seeing a bounce back.

  • 👀 | In focus: The Fed’s two-day policy meeting will be wrapping up today. Investors expect the central bank to keep rates steady at the meeting, but they are closely watching Powell’s statements in hopes he’ll allude to a September rate cut.

  • 🙂 | Noteworthy: The employment cost index, the broadest measure of labor costs, increased by 0.9% in Q2, a marked decline from Q1’s 1.2% increase. This news should help bolster the chances of a September rate cut, as it’s another piece of evidence showing inflation is back on a downward trend.

THE MIDDAY TRADE

Movies are Back

Movie theater stock Marcus Corporation (MCS) has taken a beating, down 18% over the past year. Now, analysts think it could be a strong buying opportunity.

The film industry is getting back to normal post-Covid and post-strike, and investors may be able to take part in the bounce back, according to analyst Mike Hickey. In fact, Hickey views Marcus Corporation’s stock as one of his best ideas for 2024.

Good Price Point

The stock is underperforming its peers so far this year, and Hickey believes that makes its current price attractive. He believes the company is in a strong position to benefit from the film industri’s rebound, as many similar stocks already have.

At a $500 million market cap, Marcus is notably smaller than many of the movie theater stocks that have seen a significant jump. However, it recently took over a Minnesota theater and is expanding. It also operates hotels and restaurants.

Taking Part in the Comeback

Americans are going back to the movies, recently evidenced by the record-setting opening of “Deadpool & Wolverine.” Hickey has set an $18 price target, which represents a 44% upside from Monday’s closing price. It has already jumped over 13% this month and should have plenty of room to grow if Hickey is correct.

The industry has had a tough few years, and it seems that things are starting to look up. This stock could be a relatively cheap way for investors to gain exposure to the comeback of the American movie scene.

SURVEY THE STREET

Boeing reported a wider-than-expected loss in its Q2 earnings report. In fact, its core operating loss was more than triple the loss from a year ago, coming in at a staggering $1.4 billion.

The loss is primarily tied to Boeing’s continued manufacturing malfunctions and the increased safety scrutiny it is now under.

However, there is a glimmer of hope. The plane manufacturer announced that CEO Dave Calhoun is retiring and will be replaced by Robert “Kelly” Ortberg, the former CEO of supplier Rockwell Collins.

Ortberg stated that “there is much work to be done." So, the question now is whether he’ll be able to bring about the changes necessary to right Boeing’s woes.

Will Boeing's new CEO be able to fix the company's persistent manufacturing issues?
