Good MorningEquity markets hovered near record highs for a second day as traders and investors waited on this week's events. The CPI report, due today, is at the top of the list. The report is expected to show steady consumer inflation at the core level of nearly 2.6%. This aligns with the trend but raises the risk that the FOMC will wait for additional slowing before its next move. With Trump on his way to the White House, that may not be for some time. Trump's return to office will impact the economy even before he makes his first policy change because of the impact on sentiment. With regulatory hurdles and tax burdens expected to recede, CEOs and CFOs can start making plans for the next four years.
The S&P 500 is at a critical juncture, trading just beneath the 6,100 resistance target. If the market can move higher from here, the odds are high that the S&P 500 will continue higher through the end of the year and into 2025. In that scenario, the S&P 500 could advance to the 7,500 level or higher. Featured: URGENT: This Altcoin Opportunity Won’t Wait – Act Now (Crypto Swap Profits) |
