What’s in Today’s Report:

  • September Market Multiple Table Update: Still Overvalued
  • Chart – Oil Falls to 52-Week Lows on Demand Worries

Futures are modestly lower this morning as last week’s volatility and yesterday’s relief rally are digested by investors while focus is shifting to tomorrow’s CPI release.

Economically, the NFIB Small Business Optimism Index whiffed estimates of 93.6 and fell 2.5 points to 91.2 in August while German CPI met estimates at 1.9% y/y.

Looking into today’s session, there are no notable economic reports on the calendar, but two Fed officials are scheduled to speak: Barr (10:00 a.m. ET) and Bowman (12:15 p.m. ET). It is unlikely that either move markets though.

Finally, in the afternoon, the Treasury will hold a 3-Yr Note auction at 1:00 p.m. ET. If demand for the Notes is weak it could spark hawkish money flows while an auction outcome too-strong could reignite recession worries in afternoon trade.

Bottom line, more “wait-and-see” trading is most likely for today’s session as traders await the latest inflation data which has the potential to shift Fed policy expectations (25 bop or 50 bp Fed rate cut) ahead of next week’s meeting.
