Summary
US equities opened moderately higher, and quickly built significant gains to 2829. There was a distinct cooling wave in late morning to 2803, with the afternoon seeing renewed upside. Volatility was in cooling mode, with the VIX settling -10.1% at 14.68.
Rate outlook shifting
Today saw the cheerleaders on the lunchtime show, argue over the next move in interest rates. It is increasingly the case that many now expect a rate cut as early as September.
For the record, I don't expect a rate cut until at least the FOMC of Oct'30th or Dec'11th. In any case, a rate cut will be the ultimate sell signal.
Ohh, and BREXIT is now just 3 days away. Whilst there will be a truck load of 'indicative' votes in the UK Parliament on Wednesday, it makes zero difference, as UK law has NOT yet been changed.
