Good MorningEquity markets began on Tuesday in rebound mode but could not hold the gains. They sold off throughout the day after opening with a gap up, closing down by more than 2%. The move shows significant resistance at a short-term EMA and points to additional weakness this week. The risk now is that the Fed minutes, scheduled for release this afternoon, and the CPI report on Thursday will amplify fears and cause the sell-off to gain momentum.
The critical support target for the S&P 500 is 4,816, aligning with an all-time high broken in early 2024. This level should offer solid support and could lead to a rebound later in the year, though mounting tariff risks, trade tensions, and the potential for global economic stagnation could limit any recovery. The market could set a new low in that scenario and open the door for another 20% decline that could happen quickly and keep equities under pressure for years.
