Good MorningEquity markets fell hard on Monday with the S&P 500 down more than 2.5% at the low of the day. The move was caused by the growing worry of an economic slowdown that was amplified by a new crisis in Asia. Chinese real estate firm Evergrande is on the verge of defaulting on $300 billion in debt and could cause a ripple effect throughout the global economy.
As bad as the news is from China it is the FOMC that U.S. traders are most concerned about. The pace of consumer-level inflation cooled off a bit over the past month but remains high and suggests the Fed could issue a hawkish statement on Wednesday. The risk for the market is that Wednesday’s statement could be more hawkish than expected and send the market moving even lower.

Chaikin has identified specific stocks he believes investors should sell before they fall further - and the names may surprise you. He's also pinpointing a company tapped as Nvidia's self-driving partner and a potential AI megadeal that could split into three high-growth stocks.
