Investing.com -- Stocks gave back some of their gains on Tuesday amid a steady stream of retail earnings as investors await Friday's speech by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.
While the market expects the Fed to pause on another interest rate hike when its policymakers meet in September, there are concerns the Fed still intends on another rate increase before the end of the year.
Better-than-expected inflation numbers indicating that prices are cooling have given some the view that the end of rate hikes is now. But some Fed officials have said they still need to get inflation down to their 2% target, and that rates would have to stay higher until that is accomplished.
Macy's (NYSE:M) offered a cautious outlook for the full year, with same-store sales expected to drop despite the holiday season that is quickly approaching. More department stores, including Kohl's and Nordstrom (NYSE:JWN) are due to report later this week.
Here are three things that could affect markets tomorrow:
1. Nvidia earnings
Chip maker NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) is expected to report earnings per share of $2.07 on revenue of $11.1 billion, but analysts will be listening to any updates it can give on its artificial intelligence business.
2. Snowflake reports
Snowflake Inc (NYSE:SNOW) is expected to report earnings per share of 10 cents on revenue of $662.2 million.
3. Kohl's earnings
Department store Kohl’s Corp (NYSE:KSS) is expected to report earnings per share of 24 cents on revenue of $3.74B, while Bath&Body Works (NYSE:BBWI) is expected to report earnings per share of 33 cents on revenue of $1.56B.
