WED 6/19: Trade Optimism, Fed Decision – Another Leader Breaks Out

– James F. Taulman, former Editor-in-Chief of the first independently licensed website to offer stock reports and services based on the CAN SLIM® investment system.


6:00 AM – MORNING MARKET UPDATE & WATCH LIST

[dropcap]T[/dropcap]he current rally got a needed boost yesterday when the Dow and Nasdaq both closed up +1.4%, while the S&P 500 rose +1%.


QUOTE OF THE DAY:

“What do you despise? By this are you truly known.”
– Frank Herbert


This morning, stocks in Asia rallied on optimism about trade and more easy money. The Hang Seng leaped nearly +2.6%, while the Shanghai Composite rose nearly +1%. The Nikkei increased by +1.7%.

European markets dipped on the heels of big gains. Britain’s FTSE 100 shed -0.3%, while France’s CAC 40 fell -0.2% and Germany’s DAX lost –0.1%.

The Fed’s latest rate decision will post at 2:00 p.m. ET, followed by a press conference.

Investors are looking for Powell to deliver a solidly dovish message, following his remarks two weeks ago that the Fed would act as appropriate to sustain the economic expansion in the United States.

Expectations for a rate cut in July are now at nearly 84%, according to the CME’s FedWatch tool.

Also, driving investor sentiment in the meantime is Trump’s announcement Tuesday that he will have an “extended” meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the G20.

As I pointed out in the latest issue of my Sunday Stock Report – “…there are two big issues which will be driving the markets at least through the end of the month.

First, there is the FOMC meeting on this coming Tuesday and Wednesday to discuss the latest monetary policy after May’s market selloff.

Later this month in Japan, we have the G-20 meeting on June 28th and 29th where we could see Trump and Xi Jinping talk next about trade.

A dovish tone from the Fed or progress in the trade negotiations could help put some life into this fledgling rally.”
