Good MorningEquity markets hovered at a one-week high on Wednesday, signaling the stock rebound may already be over. Interest rates impacted the market; the yield on the 10-year treasury returned to a multi-month high and may move significantly higher over the next few weeks. The economic data does not support the need for the FOMC to cut interest rates, as seen in the ten-year yield. The market had priced in a June or July cut; now it looks like September or later before the FOMC makes the first move.
The bond market is pricing in a later rate cut, and the equity markets the impact of higher rates on earnings. The outlook for 2nd half earnings is pegged to an interest rate cut that looks less likely than ever. Because it may be several months before the data cooperates enough to allow an interest rate cut, the sell-off in equities could last as long. In this scenario, a move below critical support targets near 4,820 is possible. Featured: 5 Best Stocks Under $5 to Buy Now (Ad)
