On August 9th, Cypriot Energy Minister Michael Damianos stated in an interview with US media that Cyprus is expected to begin supplying natural gas from the Eastern Mediterranean to Europe as early as March 2028. 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.According to Sky News: Yemeni sources say the Houthi rebels fourth wave of missile and drone attacks targeted government positions in the port of Mocha and its outskirts.According to the Syrian state news agency, the Syrian Foreign Ministry stated that Syria and Russia will begin restructuring Russias presence along the Syrian coast within the framework of a memorandum.Hamas senior official Bassem Naim: It is expected that mediators and the United States will pressure Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and his government to adhere to the roadmap.

S&P 500 Price Forecast – Stock Markets Continue to Worry About Rates

Technical Analysis of the S&P 500

The S&P 500 E-mini contract started overnight trading poorly and hasn't been making a lot of sense. Yet, the contract's high level of volatility persists, and as a result, downward pressure is beginning to build. It's important to note that the 200-Day EMA and the 50-Day EMA are located immediately below. Given that they are both rather flat, there may not actually be any momentum.


As it is slightly above the psychologically and structurally significant 4000 level, this may pave the way for a support level to develop in that approximate area. You must keep in mind that earnings season is now underway because it could cause the market to fluctuate. The moving averages and the psychologically significant 4000 level, if we were to break down below them, might drive the futures market and the index itself significantly lower.


It thus creates the chance of a decline down to the 3900 level, where we had experienced some buying pressure. Following that, there comes the 3800 level, which is considerably more significant and will get a lot of attention. When it comes to whether or not the market can save itself, we would be in that general area hanging on by a thread.


The previous two candlesticks have undoubtedly looked pretty bearish, and I think that may have some momentum built up in it. If the market were to flip around and bounce, then it may try to move towards the 4200 level. The minutes from the Federal Open Market Committee meeting, which are released on Wednesday, will undoubtedly also be relevant. This ought to provide traders a good indication of what the Federal Reserve members discussed during the meeting and whether or not there is an overall hawkish mindset or if there are any ice cracks appearing. This will have a significant impact on the market.
