  On Wall Street, everything is an expectations game. You'll never get a clearer example than Apple's earnings report this past week. The numbers were objectively pretty bad. Revenue was down 4% from the year-ago period, the fifth decline in the past six quarters. But Apple shares heading into the report were down 10% on the year, a clear indication that investors were braced for the worst. And while what Apple delivered wasn't especially compelling, it was better than feared.

  CVS Health caught a bad case of the Medicare Advantage blues this past week, blaming the program for its failure to meet quarterly-earnings expectations and slashing its full-year guidance. Shares plunged 19% on Wednesday, their largest decline since 2009. Analysts were shocked. "Did not even believe the CVS numbers when they were released," Mizuho healthcare equity strategist Jared Holz wrote on early Wednesday.

  Crisis averted.
  
  What crisis, you may ask? The one that investors seemed to be expecting. April had been painful -- the S&P 500 index dropped 4.2%, its worst month since September -- and sentiment had soured heading into the last week of the month. The Institutional Investors Bull/Bear ratio slipped to 2.1 from 3.9, the largest week-over-week slide in bullishness since February 2018, according to Oppenheimer's Ari Wald. Despair was in the air, and it hadn't taken much to get it there, just some hotter-than-expected inflation data and the possibility that the Federal Reserve might be forced to raise interest rates.

  Just as a falling yen seemed ready to be the next reason cited to prove the sky is falling, Japan's currency is starting to rebound. That may not be great if you're traveling to Japan in a week or two, but it's fantastic news for global markets.
