Market Notebook
Discussion –
PRICE ACTION:
Equity prices, as measured by ticker SPY, and bond prices, as measured by ticker BND, closed higher on the week.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS:
SPY price appears established in an upward trend.
BND price action pushed the BND price back into an established area of consolidation.
SENTIMENT:
Based upon last week’s price action, market participants appear to believe that the U.S. economy is headed for a soft landing with interest rates largely under control.
ECONOMY AND FUNDAMENTALS:
Economic indicators within the Market Notebook remain mixed.
Jobless claims are to be watched as a key indicator of a potential recession. Thus far, jobless claims are not indicative of a recession.
All the best during the week ahead!
