Good MorningEquity markets continue to hover near record highs, trading with a very tight range. The Q3 GDP read was insufficient news to catalyze a larger move, falling short of the consensus estimates, but there are more potential catalysts this week than one. Today's news includes a read on the PCE Price Index, which is expected to show steady inflation compared to the prior month. Tomorrow's news includes the non-farm payroll report, which is expected to show a tepid 100,000 net new jobs, aligning with an outlook for slowing economic activity and a higher likelihood for aggressive FOMC rate cuts this year and next.
Earnings season continues to unfold with mixed results from companies like Advanced Micro Devices and Chipotle Mexican Grill. Both reported solid results but failed to impress the market, leaving their stock prices to plummet. The risk now is that results from other big tech companies, including NVIDIA, later in November, and from retailers that are also expected to report in November will follow suit and cap gains in the index regardless of the outlook for rate cuts.
