Recap Around the Street 🧠

CPI and PPI slowdown (despite shelter persistency and a somewhat worrisome rise in medical costs) suggest inflation concerns are turning rear view. The key for the Fed is labor market cooldown, already starting to surface with slowing wages and rising jobless claims. Will Fed cut before Sahm Rule is triggered which would need to see unemployment rate rise to 4.2-4.3%? Fed has historically not moved preemptively on slowdown concerns, unless there is a threat to banking stability. The one time they did? Mid-90s under Greenspan. (Contributed by Benjamin Lavine, CIO at Freedom Investment Management).

Over the past 2.5 months, the SPY's given us a picture perfect cup and handle breakout straight into the 1.618 golden Fibonacci extension. Now what? The last time RSI hit overbought levels, we saw price retreat for a few weeks. Perhaps the next move here is for RSI to cool off and gaps to fill.(Contributed by Jason Krutzky of Trendspider ).

Patient Apple bulls were rewarded this week, as price managed to break out of a year long base off the heels of their WWDC '24 event. The measured move from the base puts the stock at $230, and it might get there faster than anyone thinks. With volume pushing levels not seen in nearly a year and a half, buyers are clearly stepping in and showing their hand.(Contributed by Jason Krutzky of Trendspider ).

TSLA's been a difficult stock to own over the past year, but as they say, 'it's always darkest before the dawn,' and seasonality suggests that the sun is about to rise. Historically, July is the best performing month of the year, with a 73% win rate and an mean change of a whopping +10%. Seasonality aligning with Elon's compensation package approval could be just what the doctor ordered to bring the struggling name back to life.(Contributed by Jason Krutzky of Trendspider ).
