It was not enough to derail the soft landing thesis: Tom Essaye Quoted in Blockworks


GDP estimates boost hopes for a soft landing

Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research, said the report “was not enough to derail the soft landing thesis by itself, but it was a step in that direction as investors will want to start seeing the decline in headline job openings slow as part of a soft landing dynamic and still-healthy labor market.”

The fundamental backdrop of the oil market

The fundamental backdrop of the oil market: Tyler Richey Quoted in Morningstar


Oil prices end higher on surprise fall in U.S. crude supply, rise in gasoline demand

“The fundamental backdrop of the oil market has become less bearish this week, but it would be a stretch to say that market dynamics are beginning to favor the bulls on any time horizon beyond a few days,” said Tyler Richey, co-editor at Sevens Report Research.

“Concerns about a surplus emerging in the global oil market have been dialed back given the improving consumer-demand figures in [Wednesday’s] EIA report and news that OPEC+ leadership is considering postponing output cuts currently planned for December,” he told MarketWatch.

One of the more important lessons I’ve learned

One of the more important lessons I’ve learned: Sevens Report Editor, Tom Essaye, Quoted in Barron’s


High Yield Bonds May Be Sending an Ominous Message, Says One Analyst

One of the more important lessons I’ve learned in my two-plus decades of watching markets is that bond markets can (and often do) lead stock markets. That’s why we watch bonds so closely. A recent technical breakdown in the high-yield ETF JNK [SPDR Bloomberg High Yield Bond ETF] has caught our attention.

Growth and inflation have been firmer than expected

Growth and inflation have been firmer than expected: Sevens Report Founder Tom Essaye Quoted in Morningstar


Why U.S. stock market’s slump on rising Treasury yields may be short-lived

While U.S. fiscal concerns tied to a potential Republican sweep in the upcoming election may be behind the 10-year Treasury yield’s rise, “it’s much more likely the 10-year yield has risen to three-month highs because growth and inflation have been firmer than expected,” according to a note Wednesday from Sevens Report Research.

“Economic growth since the Fed rate cut has been almost universally better than expected,” including the September jobs report, retail sales, data measuring the services sector and estimates from Atlanta Fed’s GDPNow model, the note said.

Tom Essaye Interviewed On Schwab Network

 Boeing’s loss this quarter is breathtaking: Tom Essaye Interviewed On Schwab Network


Boeing (BA) Plummets on Double Earnings Miss

The size of Boeing’s (BA) loss this quarter is “breathtaking,” says Tom Essaye, going on to call the numbers “horrific.” But, he adds, what’s important is how well they execute on their recovery plan. Nicolas Owens notes the recent machinist strike cost Boeing billions of dollars, and that the new CEO is looking for “fundamental culture change.”

Barron’s Senior Managing Editor and Deputy Editor speak with Tom Essaye

Semiconductor stocks have cycle-leading characteristics: Sevens Report Editor, Tom Essaye, interviewed on Barron’s Live


Barron’s Senior Managing Editor Lauren R. Rublin and Deputy Editor Ben Levisohn speak with Tom Essaye, Founder and President of Sevens Report about the outlook for financial markets, industry sectors, and individual stocks.

Tom Essaye: Absolutely. So the number one message we’re trying to convey in the Sevens Report is for investors to really stay focused on economic growth. And the reason I say that is because if growth can’t hold up, then we have to talk about this rally potentially ending in a very uncomfortable way. And for those of us who have been in the markets for a long time, at least at the start of this century, we’ve seen that happen a few times and it’s very painful. And if you think about investing, those are really the types of markets we want to avoid. So with the Fed cutting rates, we now know that if growth rolls over, they will not be able to cut fast enough to prevent any sort of a slowdown. So to use the analogy, the die has been cast to a point. Now the Fed is cutting and we must see if growth holds up. Everything that’s going on around growth, so how many cuts are they going to have in 2024? What’s going to happen with the election? Is the Chinese stimulus going to be enough? All of those are ancillary issues, but the main issue is growth. Because if growth rolls over, now we have to talk about that being a rally-killing event and those are the big events we want everyone to be able to avoid.

A market that remains firmly anchored by two key beliefs

A market that remains firmly anchored by two key beliefs: Sevens Report Analysts Quoted in Investing.com


Why don’t stocks drop on bad news?

As per analysts at Sevens Report, this resilience reflects a market that remains firmly anchored by two key beliefs: economic growth will remain stable, and the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates—conditions that continue to support bullish sentiment despite growing risks.

Additionally, jobless claims surged to summer highs, suggesting some softening in the labor market. “However, that number was inflated by the Boeing strike and by unemployment related to the damage from Hurricane Helene in Florida and North Carolina,” the analysts said.

Sevens Report argues that part of the reason stocks haven’t wavered is that the risks, while real, haven’t yet materialized in ways that challenge the underlying narrative of a soft landing.

“The ‘burden of proof’ remained squarely on the bears,” the analysts said, no single negative development has been powerful enough to shift market sentiment away from expectations for stable growth and falling rates.

A soft landing remains, by far, the most likely outcome for the economy

A soft landing remains, by far, the most likely outcome for the economy: Sevens Report Analysts Quoted in Courthousenews.com


Dow Jones, S&P hit fresh highs in wake of good retail data

“A soft landing remains, by far, the most likely outcome for the economy as important economic data strengthened across multiple fronts over the past month,” Tom Essaye of the Sevens Report wrote in an investor’s note on Friday morning.

“Now, to be clear, this doesn’t mean that a hard landing can’t happen (or won’t happen), but it is not happening right now and there are few conclusive signals that it’s going to happen, at least at this point,” he continued.
