Good MorningEquity markets rebounded on Wednesday gaining roughly 0.75% at the highs of the session. The move puts an end to a 7-session streak of losses that have shaved nearly 2.5% from the S&P 500. If the market can maintain its footing at this level the uptrend will remain intact. If not the market could be in for another 1% to 9% correction before the end of the month.
Wednesday trading was supported by better than expected data from the manufacturing sector. The New York Empire State manufacturing index rose unexpectedly and doubled the expectation on an increase in new orders, backlogs, and deliveries. The news bodes well for economic activity in the 3rd quarter but is only one of the dozens of reports for the market to digest such as the August read on retail sales. Retail sales are expected to decline from the previous year, the question is by how much?
