  • Thoughts for 2024 (The Benefit of Staying in the Middle)

Futures are flat following a quiet night of news as investors look ahead to the looming three day weekend.

Economically, there were two Japanese economic reports, both of which best estimates.  Japanese Industrial Production fell less than expected (-0.9% vs. (E) -1.7%) while Retail Sales rose more than expected (1.0% vs. 0.1%).

Geo-politically, there was no new news overnight, but tensions remain elevated in the Mid-East.

With the long weekend looming we should expect another quiet trading day although there are two notable economic reports today:  Jobless Claims (E: 210k) and Pending Home Sales (E: 0.8%).  However, given the calendar, it’d take substantial negative surprises from either metric to materially move markets and that’s very unlikely.

Sevens Report Q4 ’23 Quarterly Letter

The Q4 2023 Quarterly Letter will be delivered to advisor subscribers on Tuesday, January 2nd.

The S&P 500 will end 2023 close to all-time highs but the Santa rally has left many investors complacent towards risks in 2024.  Showing clients and prospects a balanced view of markets is an opportunity to differentiate yourself from your competition and strengthen client relationships!

We will deliver the letter on the first business day of the quarter because we want you to be able to send your quarterly letter before your competition (and with little to no work from you).

You can view our Q3 ’23 Quarterly Letter here.
