The Markets
Stocks slipped on Wednesday as traders digested a much hotter than expected read of consumer prices in the US. The S&P 500 Index fell by less than half of one percent, ending at the pivotal 3800 level that we have highlighted exhaustively over the past few months. The upper limit to a declining wedge pattern continues to act as the cap to the recent wave higher in this ongoing trend of lower-lows and lower-highs. The start of July lows around 3750 remains our stop level to recently ramped up equity exposure in order to participate in this summer rally period that we are still giving some leeway towards. Momentum indicators are rolling over again below their middle lines, keeping the characteristics of a negative trend intact. The buy point to the narrowing declining range continues to be pegged at trendline resistance that is just below 3900. Between here and there, we are stuck in this rather neutral state for this summer rally period that has been rather lacklustre, thus far.
Today, in our Market Outlook to subscribers, we discuss the following:
