Good MorningEquity markets slipped in early trading on Wednesday but regained the lost ground by the end of the day. The move was driven by a renewed fear of the FOMC offset by some better-than-expected economic data. The ADP employment report and the ISM services index both came in better than expected and point to solid activity within some parts of the economy. The bad news is that strong data will reinforce the Fed's need to raise interest rates. There is still a high probability for a 75 basis point interest rate hike in November and there are still two key reads on inflation before then.
The chart of the S&P 500 shows price action is rebounding and it may continue to rebound but there are risks to be aware of. Wednesday's index action is showing resistance at key levels that could keep it from moving much higher. This resistance is consistent with the June/July bottom and below the 30-day moving average and the top of a downward channel. In this light, traders are better served waiting for the next sell signal than trying to chase the market higher. Featured: Could this be crypto's biggest Trump win? (Ad)
