With talk of the likelihood of resumed peace talks in the next couple days and the U.S. move for talks between Israel and Lebanon, the indexes all shot straight up again. Optimism that we’ve reached peak uncertainty and that a rebound is coming, as today’s expert put it, “Markets are starting to kind of walk away from some of the worst-case scenarios for these events and because valuations have improved over the last couple of weeks and months, investors are buying the dip right now.”  

Or to put it even more succinctly, “We don’t have a resolution yet but investors don’t want to miss the rebound.” Besides some pretty encouraging Q1 news from the major banks, PPI data showed producer prices rising less than expected which provides some encouragement on the inflation front. At 17.96 billion, volume is getting much closer to the 19.1 average indicating increased confidence.
