Proceed With Caution
In this video, we discuss the huge sell-off we had yesterday after the “hot” CPI numbers. The market did not like this at all and we are now in a holding pattern until we hear from the FED next week. Will they raise rates .50 or .75 or more, and how would this affect the market?
Roll Complete. Next OPEX
Today the roll shows complete for that which will roll. The rest is left to cash settle. We still have two more reports and OPEX ahead to wrap up the week. Additionally, I’d like to update the line in the sand, and should it hold, the next bearish target as I see it.

In this update, I explain how the hot zone of the CPI moved expectations for Fed Fund Target Rate Probability and what they really mean. As well as why the media and analysts want to scare you into thinking all this is far, far worse.

S&P 500 Rally into resistance
The S&P 500 continued to rally for a third day today reaching resistance on strong buying. But buying this strong is often capitulatory.
