Friday, Aug 28, 2026, then tomorrow

All four major indices closed lower in a risk-off session dominated by Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's hawkish Jackson Hole speech, which pushed September rate-hike odds to roughly 60% and lifted the 2-year Treasury yield. Technology (XLK, -1.60%) bore the brunt as semiconductor names led down: Marvell (MRVL) fell about 6% despite 37% quarterly revenue growth on weak fiscal 2028 guidance, Broadcom (AVGO) slid ahead of its Q3 earnings on semiconductor tariff fears, and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Dell (DELL) also fell on tariff-related supply-chain reports. Russell 2000 underperformed at -1.35%, consistent with rate-sensitive small caps repricing a higher-for-longer path. Communication Services (XLC, +1.36%) and Consumer Discretionary (+1.15%) were the standout exceptions, with Salesforce (CRM) closing up 24.31% for the week and Gap (GAP) surging 12.8% to $23.45 on raised guidance. The Warsh hawkish pivot, the semiconductor tariff overhang, and the PayPal (PYPL) deal collapse after Stripe and Advent abandoned their bid carry directly into next week's positioning.

Tomorrow

Monday, Aug 31, 2026

What is scheduled, with ET times. Not a forecast of how it lands.

Monday, Aug 31 has no scheduled economic data and no earnings in the input. The session opens with no morning catalyst to anchor the tape, leaving Warsh's Jackson Hole remarks and the unresolved semiconductor tariff headline as the primary macro overhangs. The next hard data point is the Jobs report on Friday, Sep 4 at 8:30 AM, which will structure risk appetite for the entire week. Watch whether AVGO's Q3 earnings reaction (results pending from this week) sets a tone for semis at the open, and whether the 2-year yield holds its post-Warsh level, as that will determine whether rate-sensitive sectors stabilize or extend Friday's damage.

No major scheduled catalysts.

Session structure

How the calendar shapes each holding period. Descriptive only: not advice, and not a recommendation to trade anything.

⚡ ScalpMonday carries no scheduled economic releases and no earnings, so there is no pre-market data print to concentrate volatility at a specific time. The primary open-price uncertainty comes from how markets digest Broadcom's (AVGO) pending earnings reaction and any weekend semiconductor tariff developments.
☀️ Day tradeThe session's volatility structure is headline-driven rather than data-driven, with no calendar anchors. The technology sector's Friday underperformance (-1.60%) and Communication Services' outperformance (+1.36%) represent the clearest intraday divergence from the prior session to monitor for directional follow-through or reversal.
🌊 SwingA multi-day position initiated Monday carries the Jobs report (Sep 4, 8:30 AM) as the dominant scheduled risk event before the following weekend. VIX closed at 14.43, slightly below Thursday's 14.51, reflecting a market that absorbed Friday's hawkish Fed repricing without a vol spike.
🌲 Long termFed Chair Warsh's Jackson Hole remarks moved September rate-hike probability to roughly 60%, representing a material shift in the rate path that is relevant to valuation assumptions across equity and fixed income. The Sep 4, 8:30 AM Jobs report is the next scheduled data release capable of reinforcing or softening that repricing.
