Market Highlights & Trade Updates: What’s Hot This Week

Ian Cooper’s Market Review November 3, 2025

• The stock market is rising due to easing trade tensions, lower inflation, strong earnings, and increased AI spending. Most S&P 500 companies beat expectations, except for Meta Platforms, which dropped after earnings but still had positive AI news.
• Upcoming earnings reports include Palantir, AMD, Uber, McDonald’s, and Robinhood. Stock splits from Netflix and ServiceNow could create new investment opportunities.
• We are watching overbought stocks like Caterpillar for potential put options and considering short trades on Regeneron, UPS, and Cardinal Health.
