(Bloomberg) — Stocks bounced back after selloff that erased about $6.5 trillion from global markets in the past few weeks.

Equity futures pointed to a higher Wall Street open after the worst rout in almost two years. Institutional investors bought the dip on Monday, while retail were aggressive sellers, JPMorgan Chase & Co. said. Buying US stocks after a slump of the scale witnessed over the past month has usually been profitable, according to Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s. Since 1980, the S&P 500 has generated a median return of 6% in the three months that followed a 5% decline from a recent high.
US Treasuries fell as demand for haven assets waned globally, with the market now turning to a $58 billion auction as the next test of investor appetite. Traders are also rowing back on expectations of deep cuts from the Fed this year. Swaps point to about 110 basis points of easing through this year, compared to as much as 150 basis points on Monday. An emergency cut as soon as this month has now been ruled out by money markets.
S&P 500 futures rose 0.4%. Caterpillar Inc. said it expects its annual profit will be higher than previously expected, despite seeing slightly lower sales for the full year. Uber Technologies Inc. reported better-than-expected orders in the second quarter, underscoring the continued strength in demand for rideshare and delivery services. Yum! Brands Inc. posted weaker-than-anticipated sales in the second quarter, mirroring trends at major competitors as consumers worldwide cut back on fast food.
The yield on 10-year Treasuries advanced three basis points to 3.82%. The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index rose 0.4%.
