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 | | Moderna's stock doubled in a single day after its cancer vaccine hit key Phase 3 goals, and Merck jumped too. But according to a former Steve Cohen fund manager, the next big opportunity is not Moderna or Merck.
It is a different kind of company tied to a technology already backed by Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, and Peter Thiel. Nvidia's Jensen Huang says it will have a dramatic impact on daily life, while Anthropic's CEO believes it could unlock a century of medical progress in just ten years.
