The Week Ahead:

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

There will be few government reports released this week that will have much of an impact on equity prices.

This past Saturday we have entered the FOMC Blackout period which will last through the next FOMC Rate decision on Wednesday, June 14th and conclude at midnight on June 15th.

Since there is no significant data, we are certain Fed Policy makers will have been able to breathe a bit easier after the debt limit breach was averted.

Next week is going to be considerably different. Why? the Consumer Price Index will be released a day prior to the FED rate decision and may have an 11th hour impact on the policy makers decision to raise or stay firm at current short term fed fund rate. According to the CME’s FedWatch tool, the prospect for rate changes has been anything but sanguine. May 5th there was only an 8.5% chance of another .25 increase and as recently as a week ago there was an over 60% chance and as of todays date the tool is projecting less that a 22% increase by .25 to the .0525-.0550 area. . .

As I said about CPI at the moment the market is pricing in no change but a CPI figure reversing the slow downtrend in current price levels could immediately change the expectations for no change this go round.

Understanding expectations will allow you to trade with more confidence when there is a sudden change in policy directives!

Plan your trade and trade your plan.

FOMC Minutes this week, Flash PMI Tomorrow

The Week Ahead:

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

THIS WEEK FOMC Minutes will be the big mover in addition to ongoing Debt limit increase negotiations between The Executive and Legislative branches of government. Minutes of the FOMC meeting of May 2-3 will be released on Wednesday at 1:00PM CDT. In the immediate wake of the FOMC statement there was optimism that Fed policymakers were leaning toward a pause in interest rates after a swift raising of the fed funds target range by 500 basis points that began 13 months ago. However, Fed Chair Jerome Powell pushed back against that perception in his press briefing on May 3. Although, he did say last week that tight credit conditions may limit the need for further policy tightening. In the weeks since the meeting, other Fed policymakers have cautioned against being too certain that more rate hikes are not on the way.

The minutes are likely to reinforce these views, and that these views probably haven’t shifted. The economic data released in recent weeks point to a still strong labor market and continued stubborn inflation. This is the formula that has kept the Fed on a path of further tightening to address imbalances in the labor supply/demand and reduce demand for goods and services that are pushing up prices.

The week Ahead:

By John Thorpe, Senior Broker

The week ahead, more inflation data and the Elephant in the room.   Joe Biden is heading into a critical week with congressional leaders over the debt limit . A battle that neither side wants, that neither side wants to compromise on, but both sides need to resolve. A Tuesday meeting will provide odds of a resolution happening in the few weeks remaining before the debt default deadline, June 1st.     Be prepared for the volume on each sides megaphone’s to be amplified by the ten’s of decibels.          What we do know this week is that no less than 4 Fed board governors will be speaking, 2 on Tuesday during market hours; 7:30 am CDT and 11:05 am CDT respectively, 9:15am CDT Wednesday with Bullard wrapping up the speaking engagements after the Friday close, potentially impacting Sunday nights trade.   Inflation DATA : Fasten your seat belts for these 2 numbers CPI Wednesday morning @ 7:30 CDT , economists expectations are really no change from the previous months data, that seems like more of a hope to me, be ready if you like to trade the CPI for anything. Speaking of being ready for anything, Thursday mornings release of the PPI @ 7:30 am CDT may also create unnatural volatility as economists are expecting producer prices to have increased in April from the March reports decline. prepare yourselves for large intraday moves. keep your ears to the wall as you listen for clues to further fed tightening or pauses as these Fed Governors’ speak. At Cannon we are known for creating a trading plan and trading that plan.

Plan your trade and trade your plan.

July soybean meal completed its second downside PriceCount objective in March and corrected higher. Now, the chart is threatening to break down where new sustained lows from here would project a run to the third count in the $412 area where it will be normal to see some consolidation price action.
PriceCounts – Not about where we’ve been , but where we might be going next!
July Soybean Meal Chart
The PriceCount study is a tool that can help to project the distance of a move in price. The counts are not intended to be an ‘exact’ science but rather offer a target area for the four objectives which are based off the first leg of a move with each subsequent count having a smaller percentage of being achieved. It is normal for the chart to react by correcting or consolidating at an objective and then either resuming its move or reversing trend. Best utilized in conjunction with other technical tools, PriceCounts offer one more way to analyze charts and help to manage your positions and risk. Learn more at www.qtchartoftheday.com
