On September 9th, local time, the U.S. Southern Command announced that on the 8th, the Joint Task Force for the Western Hemisphere (JTF-WHEM) intercepted a floating refueling station in the eastern Pacific Ocean that day, which was supporting illegal drug trafficking activities at sea. Intelligence confirmed that the vessel was linked to the Ecuadorian drug trafficking terrorist organization "Los Choneros". The personnel taken from the ship have been handed over to Ecuadorian authorities. After inspecting the vessel and disembarking the crew, the U.S. military sank the ship.On September 9th, Colombian President Eduardo de la Espley met with visiting US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in the northern coastal city of Barranquilla on the 8th. Following the meeting, de la Espley stated that Colombia and the US would strengthen cooperation in areas such as regional security, drug control, border affairs, and investment and development. Colombian Senator Iván Cepeda issued a statement via social media opposing Rubios visit and questioning whether certain arrangements reached between the de la Espley government and the US in security and military fields infringed upon Colombian national sovereignty. Cepeda also criticized the US-led drug control policy, arguing that the so-called "war on drugs," which has lasted nearly 50 years, has failed to fundamentally solve the drug problem.Xi Jinping sent a congratulatory message to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on the 78th anniversary of the founding of the DPRK.On September 9th, according to Axios, US President Trump announced that the US will ban imports of Canadian alcohol, certain dairy products, and large motorcycles; this move marks a sharp escalation in the trade war, primarily driven by tariffs. These import bans will take effect on September 29th; unlike simply raising tariffs and causing price increases, the bans effectively cut off the access of the relevant Canadian goods to the US market. Trump is implementing these bans under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930; this section authorizes the president to prohibit imports of goods from countries that maintain or exacerbate discriminatory practices against US commerce. The White House also announced on Tuesday that it will extend the existing 50% tariff measures to dozens of additional Canadian products—including certain steel and aluminum products, furniture, and paper—effective September 15th.Japans broad money supply liquidity rate was 4.4% year-on-year in August, unchanged from the previous month.

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.
