Good MorningEquities continue to hover in the range of 4,100 to 4,200 and below a key resistance target. The market is having a hard time gaining traction following the previous week's rally and the risk is to the downside. The S&P 500 is well into a major reversal that could easily take it back to the 3,000 level or lower. The reversal is caused by the rapid end to over a decade of easy money policy that was capped off by trillions in COVID-related stimulus that has inflation running at record levels. With inflation at record levels, stimulus no longer juicing the economy, and aggressive FOMC rate hikes on the table, the S&P 500 are in for a tough haul over the next few quarters to two years.
If the real estate market is a leading indicator of the economy it gave the market another reason to fret on Tuesday. Applications for mortgages fell to the lowest level in 22 years and point to a contraction in the housing market. The bad news is that this will amplify the negative effects of higher rates and inflation, the good news is the real estate market should normalize during the correction as homebuilders increase inventory.
