Powell & Co. have said avoiding the mistakes of the 1970's is imperative Easing too soon could allow inflation to emerge sooner in next expansion Causing FOMC to hike again - Causing a deeper recession Higher for longer is 1 way to avoid this 5 rate cuts in 2024 is delusional

From 5048 S&P declined in 5 waves It then bounced in 3 waves The 5 wave decline indicates the near term trend is down The S&P is expected to drop < 4920 4820 - 4870 is a target zone 2 year cycle high in Feb 2024 suggests more weakness is likely

@jaykaeppel @sentimentrader So when the S&P hit a new all time high on Jan 4 2022 it was leading the economy to where? And it then fell by more than 25% and was leading the economy where? The assumption is that 'markets' know more than any individual Oct 2007 another new all time = all clear? 😉OOPS!

Oct 31 WTR Quote To the extent a 0.50% hike in December has been the main reason for rally since Oct 21, correction would bring S&P 500 down to 3698 – 3747 or lower The stock market could be vulnerable to deeper shakeout Given this set up lightening up near 3900 makes sense.

@DiMartinoBooth Spending by those 55 and older comprises 42% of GDP But this cohort is most affected by COVID Until those 55 and older are safe and able to fully reengage into the economy, growth will be held back and not normal Inflation not likely until sideline money flows into the economy
