Good MorningEquities sold off again on Thursday to bring September to a close. The S&P 500 shed more than 1.25% at the low of the day to test support at the crucial 4,300 level. If the index is not able to maintain that level into the close of trading on Friday it could lead the index into a much deeper decline. A move below that level could take the index down to 4230 or another 2.5% lower.
The risk. on Friday is the PCE price index. While spending and income data are expected to be bullish, core consumer inflation is expected to rise for another month. If inflation comes in hotter than the 0.2% expected by the market a deeper stock market correction is all but certain. Rising inflation means narrower margins and earnings for S&P 500 companies and that is never good for stock prices.
