• US stocks attempted a rebound on Tuesday after suffering a two-day sell-off that sent the S&P 500 to a one-year low.
  • Risk assets from bitcoin to stocks bounced in early Tuesday trades as interest rates fell considerably.
  • First-quarter earnings results continue to roll-in, and so far 77% of companies that have reported so far have beat profit estimates, according to Fundstrat.

US stocks attempted a rebound on Tuesday after the market fell 4% between Friday and Monday as investors fear an economic recession is around the corner.

Helping fuel the rally in risk-assets on Tuesday was a considerable decline in interest rates, with the 10-year US treasury yield falling 12 basis points to just under 3%. 

Meanwhile, first-quarter earnings continue to roll in, with about 88% of S&P 500 companies having already reported results. Of those companies, 77% are beating profit estimates by a median of 8%. Additionally, 72% of those companies are beating revenue estimates by a median of 5%, according to Fundstrat.
