SPX -25.61, 6,370, opened
lower, traded in a range, formed an inside day continuing a bull flag price
pattern for a potential entry on Friday if it bounces above the high of the low
day. Technology related
stocks PLTR, NVDA, AMD, META, TSLA and AVGO also traded in a
range and AMD, META, TSLA and AVGO formed inside days.
Volume was lighter and breadth continued mixed on Thursday.
Former Fed staffer Julia Coronado said after the
June 2024 FOMC press conference, Powell was “disciplined and vague”
and “optimistic and cautious” and “I think we learned very
little and that was the intention.”
If you approach Friday’s Jackson Hole Speech at 10:00 am ET
with this expectation, you will likely NOT be disappointed.
Before the September 17, 2025, FOMC meeting, there will
be another PCE release, a Jobs Report, CPI and PPI
releases that will provide additional data for the Fed’s next
decision. If you’re hoping that tomorrow Powell will ignore those releases and tell you what the Fed is going to do
in September, you’ll likely be disappointed.
