Good MorningEquity markets tried to rebound on Thursday following Wednesday's Fed-induced rebound but the takeaway for investors is failure. The S&P 500 advanced more than 1% at the high of the day only to meet with resistance and give up the gains by the end of the day. The index closed with gains, but the candle formed is black and confirms resistance at the short-term moving average. If the index cannot close above the short-term moving average today, it could lead to intensified selling next week.
Next week could be another tough one for investors. The economic calendar is light but includes the PCE Price Index on Friday. The latest CPI index showed a cooling of inflation but not a decline, which may be repeated in the PCE data. The caveat is that PCE data is expected to be hot and confirm the need for high interest rates if not higher interest rates. Featured: 5 Stocks Poised to Soar Under Trump's Presidency (Ad)
