Good MorningEquity markets advanced on Monday, but traders and investors are warned not to read too much into the move. The S&P 500 gained about 1% at the session's high but failed to cross a critical resistance point as the rally, a relief rally, lost traction late in the day. The risk is that selling will resume on Tuesday and take the market to new lows by the end of the week.
The FOMC will dominate this week's action. The FOMC meeting begins tomorrow, and the policy statement is due on Wednesday. The committee is not expected to cut rates but may indicate when or if another cut should be expected. The market is unlikely to move higher without the Fed indicating lower interest rates are coming. Featured: Sell these "safe" blue chips immediately (Ad)

From Our Partners | | Moderna's stock doubled in a single day after its cancer vaccine hit key Phase 3 goals, and Merck jumped too. But according to a former Steve Cohen fund manager, the next big opportunity is not Moderna or Merck.
