Good MorningEquity markets wobbled in the prior week as investors and traders began to price in the idea that the FOMC would not cut rates this summer. Although inflation is tracking lower, it isn't slowing sufficiently to allow the Fed to loosen policy without the risk of reacceleration. Because the labor market data is solid, it is unlikely the Fed will cut until later this year, if at all, and there are other risks to inflation. Oil prices are rising steadily and will underpin prices throughout the economic system.
The S&P 500 rebounded on Friday but did not recover the week's losses. The candle formation is bearish and shows a peak in the price action. Due to the underlying economic strength, the market could enter a consolidation and rally to new highs later in the year, but it may also enter a correction. The market is up substantially for the year and well above the moving averages, so it is set up to fall on profit-taking. Featured: 25 candidates screened. 5 made it. (Ad)
