The Dow had a rough and tumble day skirting back and forth between black and red but mostly close to break-even and still closing with a modest gain. The S&P and Nasdaq both had terrific days zooming right up at open and staying there all day, all on the eve of the September Fed meeting during which there is a huge expectation of a rate cut. But it’s not that simple as per today’s expert, “The market is counting on sort of a goldilocks scenario where the employment market is just weak enough to prompt the Federal Reserve to start a rate cutting series, not just one, without disrupting overall growth. The markets will be disappointed if the Fed doesn’t give some hint that they intend to continue rate cuts.” In a couple of days, we’ll know. Meanwhile, the hot anticipation is reflected in today’s volume which came in at 17.68 billion, above the 16.2 billion average.
