Good MorningEquity markets were flat on Tuesday as traders await fresh inflation data. The PCE price index is due Thursday and may change the market direction. Analysts expect inflation to accelerate compared to last month and to be hot compared to last year, keeping the FOMC in a hawkish position. The risk is that inflation will be hotter than expected and lead the market to believe the first interest rate cut will come much later in the year, if at all.
The S&P 500 is poised for a correction that could come anytime. The takeaway for investors is that the S&P 500 broke to new highs this year and is set to continue rallying over the next twelve to eighteen months because an economic pivot is close to hand. In this scenario, a market pullback will be a signal to buy. Regardless of when the first interest rate cut comes, the Fed is on track to start cutting rates, which will lead to economic acceleration. Assuming no significant change in the data, that pivot will happen sometime in 2024; the only question is when, exactly, it will come.
