Moody’s downgraded the US credit watch to negative, Congress only has one week left to avoid a government shutdown, and inflation data is coming out later this week. After the fastest rally in the stock market in over a year, can the market continue to rally, or is it due for a slight pullback. While […]

Last week I gave my reasons why the stock market could rally, and rally it did. The stock market just had it’s best week of the entire year. Helped significantly by a dovish Fed, which led to lower interest rates, stocks rallied on hopes that lower interest rates would help company earnings. And earnings so

With the S&P and NASDAQ both in correction territory, people are starting to wonder how much further the stock market will fall. But maybe the question everyone should be asking is IF the stock market will fall. While tech earnings were somewhat disappointing, and even good earnings from Microsoft and Amazon failed to cause a rebound in

Unfortunately we only have historical data to use to predict where the stock

With market sentiment at neutral, this week’s inflation data could set the market direction for the rest of the month.

September is historically the worst month of the year for stocks, but so far stocks are rising. The charts are bullish, and market sentiment is greedy. After the drop we had in August, will the market break the historical trend and actually continue to rise this September, or was the bullishness over the past two weeks

PCE Inflation Data and the August Jobs Report will be the biggest things investors watch this week. But with market sentiment being flat, it’s nearly impossible to tell how the stock market will respond to this week’s economic data.
