If they’re a harbinger of the rest of earnings season, then stocks will likely move higher as more companies report. The other big reason for the rebound is that “Trump risk” appears lower now than it did when I wrote about it a month ago, largely because talk of a full-blown trade war with China has diminished.

U.S. economy still has plenty of fuel for growth, leading indicators show
The numbers: The leading economic index rose 0.3% in March, and while it was the smallest increase since last September, the gauge also showed little reason to be worried. The index “points to continued solid growth in the U.S. economy for the rest of the year,” said Ataman Ozyildirim, a senior economist at the Conference Board, publisher of the report.
