Good MorningThe market faces an old challenge this week: inflation. The PCE price index is due on Friday and is expected to confirm the uptick reflected in the CPI. If it does, the odds of a Fed rate cut will decline, leaving the questions of when and how much they will cut unanswered. As it stands, the market is pricing in a single cut sometime in the fall with a moderate chance of two by year's end.
This week's hurdles include earnings reports from FedEx and Micron. FedEx is expected to post a decline in revenue offset by improved profitability. The risk is that results and guidance will underperform, extending the existing trend, and lead the stock into another sell-off. The market is poised to sell and could fall 10% to 40% over the next few weeks. Micron, on the other hand, is likely to outperform its robust guidance, driven by demand for AI, and lead its stock price higher. Up nearly 100% from the April lows, MU could rise by another 50% to 100% this year. Featured: 5 dividend stocks worth owning in any market condition (Ad)
