Expect General Digestion of Last Week’s Rally: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stock Futures Slip as Investors Look Ahead to Jobs Report

“It’d take a major beat or miss to move markets, so we should expect continued general digestion of last week’s rally,” said Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research.

Investors will want to see signs that the economy is no longer running hot—inflation and growth moderating sufficiently to support the lowering of borrowing costs.

But markets also don’t want to see signs of undue weakness, which could suggest that the economy is slowing to a worrying degree.

Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

One Potential Catalyst That Could Shake Up Markets: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Close Lower, Pausing November Rally

Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye told Barron’s it looked like a “wait and see day” ahead of the personal consumption expenditures price index on Thursday, among other data points ahead.

“More times than not, if you’re wondering what’s driving markets right now, it’s usually yields,” Essaye said.

As the end of the year approaches, Essaye thinks it will take a major surprise from the upcoming data releases to send stocks tumbling.

“The bar to get people to heavily sell stocks is pretty high, considering if we can just kind of hold on right for the next five weeks, then we put in the books a pretty good year,” he said.

He said that will change once the calendar flips to 2024, when the market will have to live up to high expectations priced in by traders.

One Potential Catalyst That Could Shake Up Markets: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Begin Holiday-Shortened Trading Week With a Pause

“One potential catalyst that could shake up markets today is the 20-Year Treasury Bond auction at 1:00 p.m. ET as weak results could trigger a rebound in yields, especially given fading attendance this week and subsequently less liquid market conditions across asset classes,” writes Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye.

In the absence of major data that could shift the narrative, investors will be watching key earnings reports like Nvidia on Tuesday. Bond yields will also be in focus.

Bullish Market Momentum: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Look to Close Out Another Week of Gains

“If the Fed speakers stick to the same narrative (less hawkish) expect more of the same sideways, digestive trading in equities today with the threat of a continued move higher based on bullish market momentum,” Tom Essaye writes.

Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye adds that a handful of Federal Reserve officials will speak on Friday.

Stocks were little changed Friday, but poised to close out another week of gains.

Risk of Another U.S. Government Shutdown

Risk of Another U.S. Government Shutdown: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Fall to Start a Busy Economic Week

Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye notes markets are digesting Friday night’s news that Moody’s cut its outlook on U.S. credit to negative, though it kept the rating itself. Markets may also react to rising tensions in the Middle East as the U.S. launches airstrikes in Syria.

“Beyond today, though, in addition to the economic catalysts this week, risk of another U.S. government shutdown is rising as there needs to be a short-term spending deal by Friday to avoid a shutdown,” Esaye writes.

“So, any progress on that front today will help markets, while any negative headlines will likely provide a small headwind.”

Treasury Yields To Continue To Drive Short-Term Trading

Treasury Yields To Continue To Drive Short-Term Trading: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Extend Rally After Best Week of the Year

“Today there are no notable economic reports and just one Fed speaker, [Lisa] Cook (11:00 a.m. ET), so look for Treasury yields to continue to drive short-term trading,” writes Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye.

The 10-year Treasury yield ticked higher on Monday but was still at 4.614%. The 10-year yield was trading around 5% in October, which weighed on rate-sensitive stocks.

“If the 10-year yield continues to decline then the S&P 500 can extend last week’s rally.”

Israel Moved Forces Into Gaza

Israel Moved Forces Into Gaza: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Bounce Back From Dreadful Week

“Geo-politically, Israel moved forces into Gaza over the weekend but the operation is not as large as feared (yet) and that’s helping to slightly reduce geopolitical anxiety,” writes Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye.

Aside from a stacked slate of earnings reports headlined by Apple (ticker: AAPL) this week, traders will be watching developments in the Israel-Hamas war and Wednesday’s interest-rate decision from the Federal Reserve.

Core PCE Reading Was Inline With Expectations

Core PCE Reading Was Inline With Expectations: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

S&P 500 Joins Nasdaq in Correction Territory

Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye told Barron’s the core PCE reading was inline with expectations but didn’t eliminate the risk of inflation rebounding.

He added that Amazon and Intel’s earnings didn’t outweigh what has been a bad week overall.

“And, while there’s progress in Washington, markets won’t celebrate the Republicans being able to finally elect a speaker, and there’s still the prospect of a government shutdown looming,” Essaye added.

Powell’s Speech Main Takeaway

The Main Takeaway From Powell’s Speech: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s on MSN

The Stock Rally Won’t Resume Any Time Soon. Here’s Why.

As Sevens Reports Tom Essaye put it, “The main takeaway from Powell’s speech was that in this situation, there’s no way the Fed can get dovish.”
Bulls have pointed to ongoing strength in the labor market as evidence that the economy is still humming, and fodder for the rally. However, as plenty of Federal Reserve watches noted after Chairman Jerome Powell’s remarks last week, the central bank doesn’t appear inclined to let rates fall.

A Lot of Important Reports: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Fall as 10-Year Yields Touches 5%

Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye writes that the economic calendar is quiet on Monday, so yields will continue to be in focus. He thinks the higher yields go, the lower stocks will fall.

“Today, any progress on electing a Speaker of the House will be welcomed by the markets and likely push yields lower,” Essaye writes. “On the earnings front, we get a lot of important reports later this week.”
