Good MorningEquity markets retreated for the 4th day on Tuesday, with the S&P 500 falling a little more than 0.5% at the sessions' close to bring the total to about 2.5%. The move was halted at a near-term support target that may keep the market from falling further. However, solid support is still another 2% to 3% lower, so investors should be prepared for a more profound decline.
A surprisingly large drop in consumer confidence was among the drivers of Tuesday's action. The Conference Board's Consumer Confidence Index fell more than seven points to below 100, the most significant drop since 2021. More significantly, the Expectations Index fell below 80, deep into recessionary territory. The caveat is that the index of leading indicators has pointed to recession for the last two years, and no recession has formed yet. Featured: The DOJ Just Paved the Way for Account Seizures (Ad)
