S&P 500, Nasdaq Futures Tread Cautiously Before Key Inflation Data: Analyst Banks On Historical Trends For Market Rally Through November Election
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
U.S. stock futures showed caution ahead of key inflation data that could influence the Federal Reserve's policy decisions. A positive inflation report could spark a rally, potentially kicking off the Santa Claus rally. Nike's weak guidance has caused concern over earnings growth, while positive earnings from Micron Technology and strong GDP and consumer confidence data have supported a market rebound. Analyst Louis Navellier predicts a market rally through the November 2024 election, driven by falling Treasury yields and other favorable factors. SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust and Invesco QQQ ETF saw slight movements in premarket trading. Nike's stock dropped after earnings, while Occidental Petroleum rose due to Berkshire Hathaway's increased stake.
