Good MorningEquity markets pulled back from the recent high following the FOMC minutes. The minutes showed that the Fed was worried about the lack of progress on inflation and was ready to hike rates again if necessary. The tone contradicts what the market expected, reducing the odds of a rate cut this year. Without an appreciable improvement in the pace of inflation, the FOMC may have no choice but to keep policy tight if it does not raise rates again.
The market's reaction to the news was light, considering the impact on the economic outlook. The S&P 500's move lower shed less than 1% at the session's low and showed some support at the short-term moving average. Support is due to hopes for earnings growth centered on NVIDIA. NVIDIA is expected to post another blowout quarter driven by AI demand and send its and other AI-centric tech stocks to new highs. Featured: Exposed: 3 CENT Crypto to Explode June 24th?
