A pivotal week for the U.S. stock market lies ahead, as inflation data looms
Investors are eagerly awaiting the June Consumer Price Index...
Investors are eagerly awaiting the June Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, which will shed light on the Federal Reserve's future monetary policy.The report, set to be released this week, could either fuel the stock market rally or dampen it due to escalating macroeconomic challenges. Economists predict a 3.1% year-over-year increase in the CPI, indicating a slowdown from the previous month. However, the core price measure, excluding volatile food and fuel costs, is still expected to rise by 5.0% annually. Some experts believe that inflation will continue to weaken, supporting the notion that the Fed's aggressive interest-rate hikes may be nearing their end. Nonetheless, others caution that the stock market's bullish sentiment, excessive cash balances, and stretched valuations for technology companies make it vulnerable to disappointment, especially if CPI data fails to meet high expectations. The Fed has hinted at further interest-rate increases this year to combat inflation, potentially leading to a more restrictive monetary policy.
