Good Morning!
Wall Street anticipates moderate increases after the mixed closing on Friday, following the publication of much better than expected employment data in the US, which anticipates a more aggressive Federal Reserve (Fed) in its monetary tightening to cool the economy and lower the inflation. Although analysts are still debating whether the data is good or bad for the stock markets, since the positive employment data also indicates that a possible recession in the US due to rate hikes may be very mild, if it finally occurs. In this scenario, the great reference will undoubtedly be the inflation figure for July in the US, which will be published Wednesday at 2:30 p.m. (consensus +0.2% compared to the previous month and +8.7% year-on-year - a slowdown after a record 9.1% in June; consensus +0.5% excluding food and energy compared to June and +6.1% over one year according to FactSet). There will be no significant statistics on Monday, pending non-agricultural productivity figures tomorrow Tuesday.Bank stocks performed well on Friday, while the broad market ended mixed. JPMorgan Chase& Co reported a gain of 2.98%. Dow Jones ended the week with a 0.10% gain at 32,762 points. Tech-heavy Nasdaq fell 0.84% to 13,191 points, while the S&P 500 suffered a drop of 0.23%.
