Jackson Hole game plan
|Stocks duly reversed the NVDA earnings and guidance euphoria, breaking even 4,425 with ease. Even the old 4,385 support from from many weeks ago, was reached – I didn‘t count on such an easy bearish ride, but the selling picked extraordinary steam regardless of a not-so-bad day in Treasuries. Odds are thus not only for a crawl back to 4,407, but also to 4,415 today, still before Powell.
With all the fears of not just more rate hikes, but especially of no rate cuts any time soon, stocks had been quite beaten down this week, and as is usually the case, the positioning would (temporarily) get dialed back next week before stocks continue correcting lower again. Bears would prevail no matter how much inflation data dependency is mentioned.
Of course, I‘ll be covering the moves and reaction across the markets on Twitter – in advance, have a fine weekend, and thank you for all your kindness of late.
Let‘s move right into the charts – today‘s full scale article contains 3 of them.
S&P 500 and Nasdaq outlook
Daily levels are given in the introduction to today‘s article, and I‘m looking for a fine retracement first (as is being played in Intraday Signals due to this being a brief opportunity).before implications of Powell‘s words sink in, which may be as delayed (taking as long to develop) as selling into NVDA earnings.
