This Week’s Market Forecast… 📊

Over the weekend, Scott Bessent, the United States Treasury Secretary, and Jameson Greer, the United States Trade Representative, met with China’s Vice Premier to discuss a potential trade deal. After the second day of meetings, the White House announced that a deal was in place.

This early indication of an agreement is very positive for the market, and pre-market futures reflect that optimism, with all major indexes up over 1% as I write this on Sunday night. Tomorrow, the White House will announce the details of the so-called deal, and depending on several factors, especially the tariff rate, the market could be set up for a massive week.

Beyond tariffs and trade, inflation will be another major focus this week. We'll receive the long-anticipated CPI report on Tuesday, followed by the PPI report on Thursday. Both will offer important insights into the current inflation trend.

Earnings season is essentially over, but a few key reports are still on deck. The main companies I’ll be watching this week are Walmart, Cava, and Alibaba. Walmart and Cava will provide insight into the consumer, while Alibaba will give us a window into the recent turmoil in China.

The market is positioned for a strong week, fueled by hopes of a meaningful deal with China. If the agreement proves to be substantial, we could see the market push toward new highs in the coming weeks.

Have a wonderful week!!
