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.

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.

The 10-Year Yield Sits at 5.00%: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

10-Year Treasury Yield Hovers Around Milestone 5% Level, Adding Pressure to Stocks

“The 10-year yield sits at 5.00% as of this writing. And the higher it goes today, the lower stocks will likely fall,” said Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research. “Today, any progress on electing a Speaker of the House will be welcomed by the markets and likely push yields lower.”

The recent, dramatic march higher in yields has added significant headwinds for stocks. Because higher returns on risk-free government debt tend to dampen demand for riskier bets, such as equities.

Trading Today Will be Dominated by Politics, Geopolitics, and Yields: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Continue Falling Following Powell Remarks

The 10-year Treasury yield ticked lower to 4.949% after threatening to hit 5% for the first time since 2007.

Sevens Reports Research’s Tom Essaye notes that although two Federal Reserve officials are set to speak publicly today. He doesn’t expect either to move markets following Powell’s comments on Thursday.

“So, trading today will be dominated by politics, geopolitics, and yields,” he writes. “Any progress on finding a Speaker of the House will be welcomed by markets (regardless of whether it’s Jordan, McHenry or anyone else), and calming of tensions in the Middle East will similarly be welcomed by markets as would a decline in the 10-year yield. Meanwhile, the opposite of any of those will likely add more headwinds to stocks.”

It’ll be Very Hard for This Market to Rally: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Dow Falls Nearly 250 Points. 10-Year Nears 5%.

Stocks tumbled and bond yields rose Thursday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell paved the way for keeping rates steady.

“Treasury yields are doing exactly what we’d expect given Powell essentially said rates won’t go any higher, but they will stay higher for longer and the economy is strong,” Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye told Barron’s.

 “It’ll be very hard for this market to meaningfully rally with yields this high. But, barring a major geo-political positive surprise or great earnings season.”

Rising Oil Prices Will Continue to Act as a Headwind: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Open Lower Amid Rising Tensions in the Middle East

“Looking into today’s session, there will remain considerable focus on the conflict between Israel and Hamas amid Biden’s visit to the region and if no progress is made towards a ceasefire, rising oil prices will continue to act as a headwind on risk assets,” writes Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye.

President Joe Biden arrived in Tel Aviv to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. President Biden’s trip to Israel followed the explosion of a hospital in Gaza.

Yields Are Rising: Tom Essaye Quoted in Barron’s

Stocks Gain as Concerns About Conflict in Middle East Ease

Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye told Barron’s that reports President Joe Biden is weighing a visit to Israel have sent stocks higher and oil prices lower. WTI crude oil futures were down 0.7%, to $86.93 a barrel.

“Yields are higher but that’s likely by nervous investors reversing ‘fear based’ positions. That came last week as a result of the Israel/Hamas conflict,” Essaye wrote. “Point being, yields are rising as investors get more comfortable with the geo-political environment.”
