The coronavirus pandemic has “exposed a range of troubling inequalities, most of them of long standing,” Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said Friday. Powell spoke on the Juneteenth holiday that celebrates the end of slavery in the U.S. As he has several times in the past, the central bank chief noted that the recession that began in February has been particularly difficult on those at the lower end of the economic spectrum. “A particular cruelty of the pandemic has been its disproportionate effects on many areas that were already suffering,” he said. Powell spoke at the “Building a Resilient Workforce” forum presented by the Cleveland Fed. -Cox

As the country’s economy begins to reopen, Arizona and Florida are among the states that have seen a record rise in Covid-19 cases. The Arizona Department of Health Services reported 3,246 new positive cases on Friday, which topped Thursday’s single-day high of 2,519.

Bank stress tests are being changed this year to reflect potential recovery scenarios from the coronavirus-induced recession. Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Randal Quarles said Friday that the tests will pose three economic scenarios and examine how banks would fare under each. They entail a V-shaped sharp rebound, a slower U-shaped recovery and a “double-bottom” W-shaped trajectory in which a spike in Covid-19 cases would bring about another economic downturn. Financial shares added to losses following the announcement, with the KBE S&P Bank ETF off more than 2% in afternoon trading. –Cox

Traders should expect even more volatility throughout Friday’s session as the S&P 500’s first rebalancing of 2020 draws closer. The rebalancing normally happens once every quarter, but the market swoon earlier in the year forced S&P Dow Jones Indices to postpone the first-quarter rerating. Index rebalancing has often been associated with higher market volatility as index and exchange-traded funds tracking the S&P 500 have to adjust. Volatility could also be heightened Friday by quadruple witching — which refers to the expiration of single-stock futures, stock-index options, stock futures and single-stock options. —Imbert

Stocks that would benefit most from a quick reopening of the economy fell into negative territory following news that Apple was closing some of its retail stores in coronavirus hot spots.

The S&P 500 was down 0.5%, while the Dow dropped 173 points, or 0.7%. —Pound

New York University professor Aswath Damodaran said on “Squawk Alley” that the impact of day traders on free brokerage platforms like Robinhood cannot explain the recent moves higher for the stock market.”I think it’s vastly overstated. Collectively, the amount of money these Robinhood investors are investing cannot make the market change. I think it’s an easy excuse for the so-called pros,” Damodaran said. —Pound

Around midday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average traded more than 100 points higher, or 0.4%. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq were up 0.4% and 0.6%, respectively. All three of the major averages were on pace for their fourth weekly advances in five weeks. However, volatility could pick up throughout the session as traders brace for a major index rebalancing scheduled for after the close. —Imbert

The plant-based burger industry is heating up, but Jefferies believes that Beyond Meat will continue to be a winner in the space. “Beyond Meat remains the clear leader with ~78% [market] share within the refrigerated plant-based burger category,” the firm wrote in a note clients Friday.

CNBC’s Jim Cramer said on “Squawk on the Street” that the support to markets from the Federal Reserve is elevating stocks that would normally plunge, such as the struggling cruise lines.

“If the Fed is backstopping everything, then it’s very difficult for a stock to get crushed. Should Carnival really be alive after what happened in Yokohama? Well, I don’t know,” Cramer said, referencing a cruise ship that was quarantined in waters off of Japan early in the coronavirus pandemic. — Pound

McNealy’s optimism stems from his expectations for Apple’s 5G phone rollout this fall. The Jefferies target is the most optimistic of the major banks on Wall Street, eclipsing others like Citigroup, which earlier this week raised its target on Apple to $400.

Oil moved higher on Friday, boosted by pledges from OPEC+ nations to stick to the group’s record supply cut, which is equivalent to about 10% of pre-coronavirus worldwide demand. “It’s clear, there is enthusiasm in the market that oil supply is still under control,” said Paola Rodriguez Masiu, senior oil market analyst at Rystad Energy. “The compliance level has already been higher than most of the market participants expected and it seems that a better level is achievable,” she added.

Shares of Spotify ticked nearly 3% higher in premarket trading on Friday after Rosenblatt Securities assigned the streaming company’s stock a $275 per share price target, the highest on Wall Street. The firm’s prior target was $190 per share. Rosenblatt said Spotify’s “big name” exclusive podcasts like “The Ringer,” “The Joe Rogan Experience,” and Kim Kardashian West’s “The Innocence Project” are emerging as a new monetizing channel for existing media company content libraries, which likely widens the slate of quality podcasts. “We not only see attractive monetization potential from these exclusives, we envision future leverage to premium subscription pricing and label negotiations,” Rosenblatt internet and media analyst Mark Zgutowicz said in a note to clients on Friday.

Gold gained 0.7% on Friday to trade at $1,743 per ounce. – Stevens

China plans to increase purchases of U.S. agriculture products to comply with the phase one trade deal the two countries reached in January, Bloomberg News reported, citing two people familiar with the matter. The Chinese government is set to meet the trade agreement with increased buying of soybeans, corn and ethanol after the coronavirus pandemic disrupted the planned purchases, Bloomberg News said. The market cheered the news as tensions between the two nations had risen recently due to the handling of the virus. President Donald Trump had also threatened to walk away from the trade deal, saying Thursday that “a complete decoupling from China” remained an option. -Li
