Good MorningThe S&P 500 moved higher on Tuesday and is a hop, skip, and jump away from setting a new all-time high. The move is driven by the fundamental health of the U.S. economy and growing S&P 500 earnings; the only risk is that the trend will end soon. The question is whether President Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping can reach an agreement that will unfreeze trade between the two nations. If not, the index is unlikely to sustain higher highs.
Tomorrow's hurdle is the CPI report. Economists forecast an increase at both the headline and core levels, but there is a significant risk associated with this assessment. The impact of tariffs is largely unknown, and the data could go either way. Regardless, the FOMC is unlikely to act and will hold off on altering policy until later in the year. The best-case scenario is a one-and-done cut sometime in the fall, assuming the economy doesn't fall into a recession. Featured: Don’t Discover These 5 Stocks Too Late (Ad)
