Good MorningEquity markets rebounded on Tuesday, driving the S&P 500 up about 2% at the session's high. The bad news is that the advance didn't regain even half of the prior day's losses, and resistance is present at a critical level. That level coincides with the 30-day moving average, a trigger point for short-term traders, and will likely cap gains this week. The risk is that another round of selling will begin soon, possibly before the weekend, driving the market back to its lows or lower.
The sell-off is driven by a combination of factors: inflation, the FOMC, sector rotation, and fear of recession. The takeaway for investors is that inflation is cooling, and the FOMC is on track to cut interest rates, which will usher in easier economic conditions and spur a broader stock market rally. The caveat is that sector rotation may take some time to complete, and the next major bull market rally won't start until later this year or early 2025.
