Wall Street heads into a holiday-shortened week with investors focused on the Federal Reserve's June meeting, fresh consumer spending data, and developments from the G7 summit in France.
The markets will be closed Friday for the Juneteenth holiday.
The main event arrives Wednesday when the Fed announces its interest rate decision, followed by new Chairman Kevin Warsh's first press conference. Investors will be watching closely for clues on how Warsh plans to navigate persistent inflation pressures and whether he signals a more dovish approach than his predecessor. BofA expects Warsh to argue that recent supply shocks are temporary and that the Fed should remain focused on longer-term disinflation trends.
Economic data will also be in focus. The May retail sales report is due Wednesday, while housing starts and the Philadelphia Fed manufacturing survey will provide additional reads on economic momentum.
On the geopolitical front, leaders gathering at the G7 summit in Évian-les-Bains will be watched for any progress on a potential agreement between the U.S. and Iran, with energy markets remaining highly sensitive to developments.
Corporate highlights include HPE Discover, AWS Summit New York, and earnings from Accenture (ACN), Kroger (KR), CarMax (KMX), and Jabil (JBL). Markets could also see heightened volatility on Thursday as triple witching coincides with major index rebalancing activity.

2. The Financial Prophet: Victor is downgrading Marvell (MRVL) from Strong Buy to Hold after its extraordinary AI-driven rally.
