Good MorningEquity markets reversed course on Thursday giving up all of the gains from the prior day. The relief rally sparked by the FOMC was met by another round of selling driven by fear the Fed isn't acting fast enough and that inflation will continue to be a problem. The S&P 500 fell more than 4% at the low of the day led by the tech sector. The tech-heavy NASDAQ Composite fell more than 5% at the low of the day and will likely fall farther on Friday due to fear of next week's CPI data.
The CPI should moderate versus last year due to the YOY comparison. The risk for the market is that it won't and there are signs it will be hot regardless of the comparison. What this means for the market is that FOMC members may bring a 75 basis point hike back to the table and it could come as soon as June. Until then, the outlook for 2nd half economic activity and earnings growth is very cloudy with mounting risks. Featured: Washington Thinks They Own Your Bank Account (Ad)
