Tyler Richey of the Sevens Report highlights a market breadth concern

Tyler Richey of the Sevens Report highlights a market breadth concern and is quoted in MarketWatch


A technical concern suggests upside momentum is fading

Tyler Richey of the Sevens Report highlights a market breadth concern: there are more stocks trading below their 200-day average than their 50-day average.

“In simple terms, a situation where there are more stocks below their 200-day MA than their 50-day is a bearish one as in a healthy market environment, there should consistently be more stocks above their 200-day MAs than 50-day MAs,” Richey says. Another concern is the NYSE advance-decline line declined last week even though the S&P 500 hit record highs.

The threat of significant earnings reports or major economic releases

The threat of significant earnings reports or major economic releases: Sevens Report Analysts Quoted in Investing.com


What the Fed decision means for markets, beyond the near term

Without the threat of significant earnings reports or major economic releases, investors appear to be operating in an environment that is “1) easing Fed, 2) slowing but ‘OK’ economic data, and 3) generally solid earnings,” Sevens Report said in a recent note.

According to the Sevens Report, if the rate cuts are timely, they could lead to falling yields, strong earnings growth, and positive economic tailwinds. This would likely result in continued upward momentum for stocks, with the potential for the S&P 500 to hit 6,000.

“I say that confidently because the Fed cutting in time would create this macroeconomic outcome: 1) Falling yields, 2) Continued very strong earnings growth, 3) Positive economic tailwinds, 4) The prominent existence of the Fed put and 5) Expectations of accelerating growth in the future,” President of Sevens Report wrote in the note.

Beyond the very short term, it’s all about growth

Beyond the very short term, it’s all about growth: Sevens Report Editor, Tom Essaye, Quoted in Barron’s


The Stock Market Is Rising. It’s Not All About the Size of Rate Cuts.

Data on both retail sales and U.S. industrial production were solid, but traders still see a 61% chance of a half-point rate cut tomorrow. Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye says investors are still optimistic about a soft landing for the economy as the Fed prepares to cut rates. He notes tech earnings recently showed signs of life after some weaker showings in August.

Though you can expect some fireworks tomorrow as traders react to the rate decision and the forecasts for future cuts from central bank officials, Essaye argues economic data and earnings will be the market’s main driver ahead.

“Beyond the very short term, it’s all about growth,” Essaye says. “This Fed rate cut is honestly, other than from a sentiment standpoint, largely inconsequential, because whether or not the economy slows a lot between now and year end, this rate cut is not going to impact that; they take too long to filter through the economy.”

Markets are currently facing “tectonic risks”

Markets are currently facing “tectonic risks”: Sevens Report Analysts Quoted in Investing.com


Markets are currently facing ‘tectonic risks’, strategists warn

The latest Sevens Report issued a warning, stating that markets are currently facing “tectonic risks” that could pose significant threats over time.

Sevens acknowledged a sense of disbelief among some investors who were surprised by the resilience of stocks, despite mounting political uncertainty and a clearly slowing economy.

According to Sevens, while there are visible warning signs—including rising unemployment, weak manufacturing data, and negative bank guidance—the overall news isn’t “bad enough yet to cause a sustainable decline in stocks.”

However, they pointed out that the macro risks are real, with political uncertainty (particularly around potential elections), economic ambiguity (whether there will be a soft or hard landing), and geopolitical tensions (including Russia/Ukraine and the situation in Taiwan) looming large.

However, “potential risks and anecdotal negatives, while all legitimate, and not yet enough to distract investors from positive factors in this market,” they wrote.

They believe factors such as the anticipation of Federal Reserve rate cuts, expected earnings growth, and sustained enthusiasm around artificial intelligence have been supporting the market.

The analysts stated that “the burden of proof remains with the bears” as these positive elements keep stocks buoyant for now.

However, the report emphasized that while markets could “grind higher” in the short term, with the potential for the S&P 500 to hit new highs, they remain exposed to “dramatic negative shocks” that could result in a significant 10%-20% decline.

“Bottom line, the risks currently facing this market (economic growth, earnings, geopolitics) are tectonic risks. They don’t present themselves all at once or in a flash, they evolve over time until they become sustainable and that’s when bear markets occur,” said Sevens.

Wednesday’s CPI inflation report has the door open to a half-percentage-point reduction

Wednesday’s CPI inflation report: Sevens Report Founder Tom Essaye Quoted in Morningstar


The stock market is falling after CPI report. Investors may fear Fed mistake.

Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research – said that if Wednesday’s CPI inflation report came in weaker than expected and left the door open to a half-percentage-point reduction on Sept. 18, that would be “better for markets” and “generally welcome” news.

The Fed could fall behind the curve as real interest rates continue to rise.=

The Fed could fall behind the curve: Sevens Report Analysts Quoted in Investing.com


The Fed may be further behind the curve

“If we excluded housing from Core CPI, yesterday’s Core CPI reading would have increased just 0.1%,” they explained, downplaying fears of a significant inflation resurgence.

Despite this, the inflation data has reduced the likelihood of a 50-basis-point rate cut by the Fed.

The real risk, according to Sevens, is that the Fed could fall behind the curve as real interest rates continue to rise.

“Real interest rates are now putting more pressure on the economy than they have at any point during the Fed’s tightening cycle,” Sevens stated.

Wednesday’s CPI could be the deciding factor

Wednesday’s CPI could be the deciding factor: Tom Essaye Quoted in Morningstar


CPI inflation report could push Fed to make an even bigger rate cut in September

“Wednesday’s CPI could be the deciding factor in whether the Fed decides to cut 50 bps [next] week or 25 bps,” said Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research, in a Monday note. “Broadly speaking, the weaker this number, the better for markets and the greater the chance the Fed does cut 50 bps. And regardless of recent growth data, the market will generally welcome the bigger expected rate cut.”
