Good MorningThe equity markets were able to tread water for a second day on Tuesday and managed to set a new high in the process. The S&P 500 hovered between gains and losses most of the day, trading in a very tight range, before moving higher at the end of the session. Despite the smallness of the move, the S&P gained only 0.36%, the technical implications for the market is very bullish. The S&P 500 is poised to set a new all-time high, all we need now is a catalyst.
The July non-farm payroll report could be it. The NFP is expected to show a net increase in job creation but there is a risk the figure will miss expectations. Consistently high numbers of initial jobless claims are only one reason for the market to fear. Regardless, with the S&P 500 trading at fresh highs and above previous resistance there is more risk of the market higher than not. Earnings in the second quarter and outlook for the year have been much better than expected and could easily drive the index higher over the coming weeks.
