Good MorningThe equity market started the week on mixed footing following another round of weaker-than-expected Labor data. The May non-farm jobs report came in below expectations for the second month in a row raising serious doubts about the US economy's ability to rebound this summer. If the S&P 500 are unable to fill what is now a record number of open jobs all of the estimates for future earnings growth become meaningless and with them the value of S&P 500 stocks.
The market focus is also on the May read of the Consumer Price Index. The CPI data will be released later in the week and is the most current data on consumer inflation the market has. A hotter than expected number was released in May and cause the market to sell off on fears of rising interest rates. If the CPI data comes in hot again the market could be in for another big sell-off. The current consensus is for a gain of 0.5% from the previous month.
