Good MorningThe markets recovered from another swoon last week to bounce from the short-term moving average and set new all-time highs. The swoon was caused by fear of rising inflation, fears that were confirmed by the PCE price index, but the market didn't care. The outlook for earnings continues to be bright and that alone is enough to keep the market moving higher.
This week the focus will be on the non-farm payrolls report slated to be released on Friday. Last month, the US economy added 1 million new jobs including revisions, and that pace is expected for August. The weekly claims data continue to trend lower suggesting lower rates of unemployment as well. Better-than-expected data, or even just data in line with the consensus, could be enough for the market to set another fresh all-time high.

From Our Partners | | Trump is launching a new $250 bill - but that may be a distraction. Behind the scenes, Executive Order 14241 is orchestrating what analyst Porter Stansberry calls a total U.S. money reset, bypassing conventional legal channels under the guise of national security.
The last time America reset its currency - under Nixon in the 1970s - it created an average of 1,300 new millionaires a day for over 50 years.
