Good MorningEquity markets closed out a strong January on a sour note, falling more than 1.5% at the session low on the last trading day of the period. While the January Indicator is bullish, the plunge on the last day of the month could mark a top for the market that stays in place until the 2nd half. The plunge was caused by a double dose of bad news that included an expectation for earnings weakness and high interest rates in the first half before improvement in both for the 2nd.
On the earnings front, reports from Google, Microsoft and Advanced Micro Devices failed to spark rallies. All three reported as expected for Q4 2023, providing no catalyst for higher share prices now, while weakness in the first-half 2024 outlook helped to undermine sentiment. Regarding interest rates, the FOMC held rates steady as expected but told the market a cut was unlikely in March and there may be fewer cuts this year than hoped.
