Good MorningEquity markets rebounded on Wednesday but are not yet out of the weeds. The S&P 500 advanced more than 1.25 at the session's high but failed to exceed the critical resistance target of 5,700. Until then, the index is at risk of resuming its fall and may extend its sell-off to 15% or more.
Wednesday's market driver was the FOMC. The FOMC gave the market what it wanted, an outlook for two interest rate cuts this year, but there is doubt about the reality. The reality is that inflation remains high, and Trump's policies may accelerate it. In this scenario, there is as much risk the Fed will need to hike rates as the chance they will cut, opening the door to a significant market letdown later in the year.
Thursday's catalyst could be the initial claims data and the impact, if any, of the widespread government labor force reductions. 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.
It is a different kind of company tied to a technology already backed by Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, and Peter Thiel. Nvidia's Jensen Huang says it will have a dramatic impact on daily life, while Anthropic's CEO believes it could unlock a century of medical progress in just ten years.
