Today is all about Chairman Powell and the Fed.
With recent events pertaining to the global banking system, much focus is on the decision that Chairman Powell.
I am traveling today, so I will keep this short. I believe chairman Powell will raise interest rates 25 basis points. Most likely he will re-iterate their position on inflation and cooling the economy. Most likely he will address the present banking liquidity concerns with some sort of mumbo-jumbo about depositors being hole on their balances.
I would be shocked if there was anything different than that. I don’t expect any indication of a pivot or more quantitative easing than they have done already. If he says anything about providing any form of liquidity over and above what they’ve done, then we have a big problem.
There are a handful of the QQQ ETF top 10 that are in an overbought position on a daily chart. We could see a pullback in those positions towards their support areas.
Until 1 o’clock central, I am not going to make any decisions because that is what the world is waiting for, to hear what Chairman Powell is gonna do next.
Be patient.
