Good MorningThe S&P 500 held steady on Tuesday. The market is awaiting today’s expected tariff announcement and appears poised to move once the news breaks. The question is whether the tariffs are as bad as the market feared or worse. If only as bad as feared, there is a chance the index could begin to rebound on the news. As it is, the S&P 500 is down about 10% from its peaks.
Labor market data is the other market-moving news this week. The data is expected to show resilient conditions that otherwise suggest economic health. The risk for the market is twofold. If the data is hot, it will raise fears of inflation, high interest rates, and a potential recession, while weak data will point to a recession.
The narrative may begin to change as soon as next week. The first significant earnings reports of the Q1 reporting cycle are due and will set the tone for the season. Featured: The big winner of Crypto week? (Ad)
