Good MorningMarket action was light on Monday but sufficient to drive the S&P 500 to a new all-time high. Tepid though it may be, the move signals a continuation of the bullish trend that is likely to carry the index higher through the year's end. The days' largest gainers include technology stocks like Microsoft and Amazon, which gained more than 1%. The tech-heavy NASDAQ gained more than 1% and will likely trend higher through the year's end.
This week's hurdles include economic data and the Fed. The economic calendar includes monthly labor data like the ADP and NFP employment reports and the JOLTs report on job openings. The data may be mixed, and some may be weak relative to forecasts, but the balance should align with a healthy labor market and help sustain the uptrend in stocks. The bad news is that the data is unlikely to make the Fed's next policy move easy, due next week. The market has a diminished expectation for rate cuts but is still pricing in a 75% chance for another 25 basis point reduction. Featured: Trump Knows Exactly What He's Doing (Ad)
