Hold tight - a huge week ahead for the markets

• How huge? The busiest week of the quarter is upon us!

A crazy week ahead for the stock market:

1. Tomorrow (Monday) - Jensen Huang ($NVDA) and Mark Zuckerberg ($META) speak.

2. Tuesday - Conference Board Consumer Confidence data + JOLTS job openings data + earnings reports from Microsoft and AMD.

3. Wednesday - Ready? Jerome Powell is coming, the man who will determine the market's direction is arriving - the Fed's interest rate decision and Powell's statement.

4. Thursday - ISM Manufacturing PMI data + earnings reports from Apple and Amazon.

5. Friday - June employment report.

• In addition - no less than 20% of S&P 500 companies report quarterly results this week.

What's special about the upcoming sequence of events - we have economic data, earnings, and the Fed's interest rate decision meeting - simultaneously.

• Volatility returns with a big and significant week ahead.
