Here is what you need to know on Tuesday, July 27:

China day continues across the board on Tuesday with related names taking another hammering in the premarket. China and the US continue to haggle, with the US Defense Secretary talking tough over Taiwan, and China saying the relationship is at a stalemate. The Hang Seng followed up Monday's 5% slump by tanking another 4% on Tuesday and is in the process of sending US-listed Chinese stocks down again. Currently in the premarket: NetEase (NTES) -6%, Pindouduo (PDD) -5%, Tencent Music (TME) -5%, JD.com (JD) also down 5%. While this may be sending panic across the minds of retail investors who are strong followers of many of these names and the Chinese EV makers (NIO, XPEV, LI) the broad market is so far shaking off the increasing political tensions. Let's face it, it is not like relations with China were much different under the previous administration, and we have been here before with BABA and Ant Group.

It all gets a bit serious for big tech after the close on Tuesday with Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Google (GOOGL), AMD, Visa (V) and Starbucks (SBUX) the highlights. That will at least give us plenty to talk about over the virtual water cooler tomorrow.

With such a big slate after the close, it may be a risk-averse session, and the futures and Europe are currently looking pretty quiet. Over in the currency market, the dollar is pretty calm at 1.1810 versus the euro. Gold is $1,802, and oil is at $72. Bitcoin is still elevated at $38,000 despite Amazon denying reports from many (including ourselves, sorry) that it was due to begin accepting the pioneer crypto.
