Note: the fall continues.  Yesterday, the S&P ended below (1) its former all time high and (2) its 50 DMA (now support; if it stays there through the close today, it will revert to resistance).   The latter, of course, is the first serious challenge to the longer term momentum, though admittedly not a disaster.  Still, it leaves me comfortable sitting on my hands.  To be sure, it is not time to run for the hills; so, if this decline continues, there will be buying opportunities.  In my opinion, not just yet. There is one point of good news---both Wednesday and Thursday experienced gap down opens which should provide some near term upward pull.

Friday morning setup (written before news of the attack on the Saudi pipeline and the CPI report): Futures are higher thanks to an overnight retreat in oil prices (which is unlikely to hold now that Houthi rebels effectively control the entire Red Sea) and bond yields which track oil tick for tick, but the tone could quickly shift with the week’s biggest catalyst, August CPI data, due before the cash open. As of 8:00am ET, S&P and Nasdaq futures gain 0.6% with Mag 7 stocks are mostly higher, led by AMZN (+0.6%) and META (+0.7%). In premarket trading, ORCL rose 7% as its AI cloud backlog beat estimates. MSFT is planning to more than triple its data center capacity to ease computing shortages. WTI crude fell 3% overnight amid the report that Gulf states are weighing a meeting with Iranian officials to discuss the future of the Strait, the first gathering since the war began more than six months ago. Oil is on track for a 8% jump since Monday, and the International Energy Agency warned higher prices would hit consumption. Bond yields are 1-3bp lower although they remain sticky near 3 year highs: 2Y and 10Y yields are 3.2bp and 2.4bp lower, respectively. While the meeting itself was net positive for risk assets, the situation in the Middle East remains uncertain, particularly regarding renewed developments in Yemen, as Houthi rebels seize a key Yemeni port city and struck Saudi oil infrastructure. US retail diesel prices topped $6 a gallon for the first time. Commodities are mostly lower except for precious metals. All eyes are on CPI at 8:30 am ET. We also get the September preliminary UMich sentiment (10 a.m.), 2Q household change in net worth (12 p.m.) and August federal budget balance (2 p.m.). Fed speakers remain in external communications blackout period ahead of Sept. 15-16 FOMC meeting

Note: the S&P fell below the lower boundary of the uptrend off the March low and settled near its former all-time high---on terrible breadth. Given the strength in its longer term trends, that shouldn’t cause tremendous alarm. Still it is a potential warning. Follow through.

 

Thursday morning setup: US stock futures slumped for a 3rd consecutive day, unable to find traction, and trading at session lows with tech underperforming as Treasury yields pushed higher keeping risk appetite firmly in check ahead of the latest print on US factory prices and earnings from Oracle. As of 8:15am ET, S&P futures are down 0.2%, with Nasdaq futures lagging, and down 0.5%. Pre-market, MegaCap Tech stocks are mixed, led by AAPL and META +1.0%. Overnight, TSMC reported a 53% increase in monthly sales amid strong AI infrastructure demand. Incremental macro news flow were largely muted since yesterday’s close: Trump promised $5k division if GOP wins the midterm, which sparked fresh fiscal stability concerns and pushed yields to fresh 3 year highs, as the 10Y tops 4.88%. The USD reversed an earlier drop to trade at session highs as the Yen slumps. Commodities are mixed: Oil higher (WTI +1.7%), while precious metals are lower; base metals and Ags are higher. US economic data slate includes weekly jobless claims and August PPI (8:30 a.m.) and August existing home sales and July wholesale inventories (10 a.m.). Fed speakers remain in external communications blackout period ahead of Sept. 15-16 FOMC meeting

Wednesday morning setup: US equity futures are lower as oil continues its ascent, pushing Brent above $100 for the first time since July 24 and pushing 10Y yields to 4.81%. As of 8:15am, S&P futures are trading at session lows, down 0.5% and after erasing early gains, echoing a rally in Asian technology shares that lost momentum as the session progressed. Nasdaq futures are down 0.6% as Mag 7s trade mixed premarket: META +5% after saying early Muse AI usage has “blown way past our projections” with users engaging 10x more than its test cohorts, while AMZN -0.4%. The Treasury Department is expected to announce on Wednesday the size of the next day’s operation to repurchase outstanding 10-year to 20-year securities. Treasury 10-year yields trade above 4.81%, rising by 3bps. USD extended losses, trading near a 7 month low. The yen extends gains to trade near 153.30 per dollar, outperforming its G-10 peers. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent challenged traders to test his resolve on boosting the Japanese currency. Hedge funds are betting the yen will strengthen beyond 150 by year-end. Commodities were mostly higher with WTI surging above $95 and Brent topping $100 (with Shanghai oil trading almost $10 higher) for the first time since July 24 after the US struck Iranian tankers near the Kharg Island export hub and in the Gulf of Oman. Tehran responded by firing missiles at Jordan and warning ships in the Persian Gulf. Precious metals and ags are all higher. US economic data slate includes weekly ADP employment change at 8:15am. Fed speaker slate is blank during Sept. 5-17 external communications blackout period around the Sept. 15-16 FOMC meeting.
