  • Nvidia Earnings Beat Seen as Major Market Catalyst, Says Pro Trader
    May 19, 2026, 3:46 AM EDT. Jay Woods, chief market strategist at Freedom Capital Markets, identifies an Nvidia earnings beat as the 'biggest and best tailwind' for this week's market. Nvidia shares have surged from $165 to $235 recently, with $215 as minor and $200 as major support levels. Woods highlights Nvidia's upcoming quarterly report after Wednesday's close as crucial for maintaining momentum and possibly pushing shares beyond $235. He also notes rising 10-year U.S. Treasury yields above 4.65%, which could pressure equities if yields approach 5%. Additionally, Woods points to e.l.f. Beauty as an 'under-the-radar' stock with potential to rebound to $65-$70 on strong earnings. Market participants await these developments as critical indicators of direction.
