Damianos told the Associated Press that the Ukraine crisis and the Middle East conflict have destabilized global energy markets, prompting European countries to diversify their energy sources, and offshore gas fields in the Eastern Mediterranean are increasingly becoming an alternative supply route.On August 9th, a Reuters poll of economists predicted that the U.S. overall CPI annual rate would fall to 3.4% in July from 3.5% in June, while the core CPI annual rate would fall to 2.5% from 2.6% in the previous month. Economists at Citigroup believe that, as expected, if inflation readings soften for the second consecutive month, it would mean that more than one months data points to easing inflationary pressures, essentially ruling out a September rate hike. However, economists also expect core services inflation to rise slightly in July, with prices increasing by 0.3% month-on-month. This figure was flat in May and June. Bank of America analysts stated that the rebound in core services indicators may keep a September rate hike on the table. Analyst Kate Duguid said that if the latter view prevails, and inflation data is lower than expected, then the Feds rate hike may be postponed until December or later.

S&P 500 Price Forecast – Stock Markets Continue to Look Threatened

Technical Analysis of the S&P 500

The S&P 500 fluctuated wildly throughout the trading day on Wednesday, but because the employment report is due on Friday, I anticipate that things will settle down a little. Having said that, I don't believe that the market is one in which you need necessarily take a lot of risk. After all, it wouldn't be long until some kind of news sent this market into a tailspin once again.


Of course, the S&P 500 will be watching to see what the Federal Reserve decides to do in response to the employment report. However, despite the fact that many traders are attempting to figure out how to get to that point, I honestly don't believe that there is a scenario in which the Federal Reserve loosens its monetary policy.


The market will then have to accept that the Federal Reserve will continue to remain tight since there is so much inflationary pressure. However, I believe that this market still has room to grow, therefore we may retest the bottom. People worried that the Fed would have to tighten policy will benefit if the employment data are very strong.


On the other hand, if Friday's employment report turns out to be somewhat weak, some would cite that as justification for the Fed to halt quantitative tightening sooner rather than later. Of course, it's a pipe dream, but that's what the market will attempt to infer. Thursday is probably going to be a pretty choppy and quiet day.
