Investors are experiencing a mix of relief and uncertainty as the market ends a tumultuous month on a high note. The Nasdaq's worst month since March ended with a surprising uptick, largely due to Amazon's strong earnings report.

Amazon's surge contrasted sharply with Apple's decline, which contributed to the market's volatility. The jobs report and AMD earnings are upcoming events that could influence market sentiment.
