Tuesday catalysts across earnings and executives

As reported by CNBC, market participants are tracking a series of corporate events on Tuesday after a rally in technology shares helps lift the broader market to new highs.

Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon is scheduled to appear live on CNBC's "Halftime Report" in the 12 p.m. ET hour, with Leslie Picker interviewing him at the Economic Club of New York. Goldman Sachs shares have gained 5% in the past week and 13% in the past month, and the stock reaches a new high on Monday.

Palo Alto Networks is due to report after the bell, and CEO Nikesh Arora is set to appear on "Mad Money" with Jim Cramer on Tuesday evening. The cybersecurity company's shares have doubled in the past three months and hit another new high. Cisco Systems CEO Chuck Robbins is also scheduled to appear on "Mad Money," while Cisco shares reach a new high on Monday after gaining 32% in the past month and 52% in three months.

Retail earnings test consumer-facing names

Retail names are also in focus, with Ulta Beauty set to report after the bell Tuesday and Dollar General due before the bell. Ulta shares have fallen 27% over the past three months and remain down 30% from the high reached in February, while Dollar General stock has also dropped 27% in the past three months and is down 30% from its February high.

Victoria's Secret is scheduled to release earnings Tuesday morning under its new VSXY ticker. Its shares have gained 156% over the past year, although the stock is still down 19% from its January high.

The lineup underscores how market leadership remains concentrated in large technology-related names even as investors assess weaker performance in parts of retail and financials. The S&P Financials sector has lost 1% over the past week and 1% over the past month, and it is down 9% from its January high.

Our earlier article on Goldman Sachs’ AI-driven tech trade highlighted the bank’s note that its basket of unprofitable technology stocks surged in May, outpacing the Nasdaq 100 as investors piled into high-beta, AI-linked names. We also pointed to strong bullish momentum in GS shares alongside clear overbought signals, suggesting upside could continue but with a higher risk of a near-term pullback as positioning becomes crowded.
