Good MorningEquities began to rebound last week but we wouldn't call it a rally just yet. The S&P 500 moved up off of the recent low and closed above the 4,100 level but there is still risk ahead. The takeaway for the market is that, with a cloudy outlook for Q2 and 2nd half earnings and the summer season fast approaching, the adage of Sell In May and go away may be the best advice for investors. Any upswing in prices will most likely be met by selling that will cap gains and keep the S&P 500 range-bound until the fall.
The hurdle for the market next week will be the economic data. There is a raft of data including PMI, ISM, Factory Orders, and the Fed's Beige Book on top of the monthly labor data. As a whole, the data should indicate slowing and sluggish economic activity in the face of tight labor markets and rising inflation, otherwise known as stagflation.
