HAVE YOU SUBSCRIBED TO "Before the Bell?" https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFmyKJKseEMQp1d14AjvMUw (2/23/23) Markets are receiving a cluster of support; not all tech companies are alike: NVIDIA vs Intel; it is critical for markets to hold support at current levels; the Fed continuing, aggressive rate hikes have yet to affect markets: Impact on futures vs the lag effect; 475-bp increases have yet ot be felt. Don't ignore Chicago Fed Activity Index: the Fed is "dancing around" financial conditions and keeping a lid on the stock market. There is now an alternative to Zero Returns = Cash. Why cash "sitting on the sidelines" isn't necessarily going back into stocks; alternatives to stocks: "Money-good Bonds." When you're betting on junk bonds, "risk-free" is a no-brainer; what the Fed wants is a "Controlled-burn" of asset prices. Bond markets are pricing-in a Fed rate above 5%.Three options: Hard-landing, Soft-Landing, or No-landing, and No-landing isn't going to happen.
