Good MorningEquity markets tread water on Tuesday ahead of remarks expected from Fed Chief Jerome Powell. Mr. Powell is expected to comment on inflation and could give insight into when and how high inflation will peak. There is a growing expectation on Wall Street the Fed Chief will both raise the target for peak inflation and extend the duration that it lasts. If this is the case the S&P 500 will most likely begin correction once again.
Also on tap this week, the PCE price index. The PCE price index is expected to cool on a month-to-month basis but should remain high and in-line with current FOMC expectations. The risk is the PCE will affirm the expectation for higher inflation that lasts longer, an event that will seal the deal on the S&P 500's next move. Featured: The single best 10% yield in the market?
