You’re Seeing A Bounce And A ‘Buy The Dip Says Sevens Report

/in , /by

The two underpinnings of the rally are really earnings and economic growth, Tom Essaye tells Barron’s.

The Dow Is Leading. Wall Street Is Selling Winners and Buying Losers.

“You’re just seeing sort of a bounce and a ‘buy the dip,’” Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye tells Barron’s. “The consumer is holding up really, really well. There are some concerns that increased price hikes into the coming months will continue to sort of strain consumer spending, but there’s just no real evidence that that’s happening yet.”

Essaye says that as long as the labor market holds on and AI spending continues to drive massive earnings growth, the market can keep chugging.

“All of this money being spent is essentially being just firehosed onto the economy by the hyperscalers, by investors that are just clamoring to build out these AI data centers, and it’s creating this, essentially additional stimulus program, that’s helping every sector of the market—every single one,” Essaye says. “If that is not self-sustaining, if all of that doesn’t have a net positive ROI, and it stops, then everything has a real big problem. But it’s not stopping any time soon.”

“Barring any noteworthy disappointments, particularly from the tech companies reporting, a strong earnings season should remain a tailwind for market into the end of the month,” writes Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye.

We’re Not Seeing The Type of P/E Surge You’d Expect Says Sevens Report Analysts

/in , /by

Notably, this is just what we saw with semiconductors starting three years ago, Sevens Report Analysts.

The ‘Insatiable’ Logic Behind Micron’s ‘Extreme’ Gains

“We’re not seeing the type of P/E surge you’d expect given the rallies, because earnings are rising faster than the share prices (notably, this is just what we saw with semiconductors starting three years ago),” wrote analysts at Sevens Report in a research note.

“While the gains have been extreme in the near term, the reality is they are being fueled by insatiable demand that likely won’t end unless the hyperscalers abandon the AI data center buildout (and that’s not likely to happen in the next 12-18 months),” wrote the Sevens Report analysts.

Tom Essaye Tells Barron’s What’s Really Supporting The Rally

/in , /by

The two underpinnings of the rally are really earnings and economic growth, Tom Essaye tells Barron’s.

S&P 500, Nasdaq Climb Back to Record Highs. Earnings Are in Focus.

“The two underpinnings of the rally are really earnings and economic growth, and the news continues to be good,” Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye tells Barron’s.

Essaye argues part of the risk for the market is that both strong earnings and economic growth are tied to the artificial intelligence buildout.

“That’s essentially acting like an economic stimulus program that’s boosting growth at the same time,” he says. “That’s fine—unless it stops. And then all of a sudden you’ve got a really substantial problem on your hands.”

Highest Number of Dissents Among FOMC Members Since 1992 – Tom Essaye

/in , /by

Monetary policy uncertainty, by itself, isn’t a bearish game changer says Tom Essaye

U.S. Dips Into Oil Reserves as Iran War Enters Its Third Month

Wednesday’s Federal Open Market Committee meeting saw the highest number of dissents among voting FOMC members since 1992, leaving the market with limited conviction as to which direction the Fed will move policy rates in the coming months and quarters. Case in point, federal-funds futures have priced back in risks of rate hikes in 2027 (17.5% odds).

Monetary policy uncertainty, by itself, isn’t a bearish game changer that will derail the latest leg of this historic, respect-worthy stock market rally. But markets prefer to have a good idea of what lies ahead, particularly with regard to monetary policy, and the prior consensus view that the Fed is “on hold” for now with the eventual next change to policy rates being a rate cut, not a hike, is poised to be challenged by the latest run-hot economy showing up in the latest “hard data” reports.

And while a run-hot economy is widely preferred over either stagflation or sudden contraction, the uncertainty regarding rate policy will leave the risks of relatively violent bouts of market volatility increasingly elevated as we continue to navigate 2026. Tom Essaye

Need to see strong demand in the 10-Yr auction says Tom Essaye

Treasuries Are Soaring in Relief Rally. A Key Auction Is Ahead.

The Treasury Department will auction $29 billion worth of 10-year notes today. More demand for the note would indicate investors are less worried about the inflation pass-through from the war.

“It will be important to see strong demand in the 10-Yr auction to assure investors’ stagflation worries have eased amid the ceasefire,” wrote Tom Essaye, founder of The Sevens Report.
