Good MorningThe S&P 500 advanced last week, but the market shows signs of a top that may lower it in the coming weeks. The market opened flat and moved higher but closed with virtually no change, creating a Doji candle. The Doji candle is a sign of indecision and could signal a turning point. This week's events include the latest read on PCE price, which may be the catalyst. A hot read on PCE would keep the FOMC in a hawkish stance and raise the risk of a recession later on down the road.
As much risk as there is tied to the FOMC, the real risk may be to be underinvested. The economy and S&P earnings continue to grow, conditions in which stock prices can flourish. Because the economy and S&P 500 earnings are growing and the FOMC is on track to cut rates, equity markets could rally indefinitely with only periodic pullbacks for investors. The takeaway is to stay the course with investment plans and build capital to invest when the next opportunity arises. Featured: 5 Best Stocks Under $5 to Buy Now (Ad)
