Editor’s Note: On Wednesday, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) chose to keep interest rates steady. I’m personally perplexed by this, since the latest inflation data shows it’s cooling down.

The stock market has had a nice run for the past couple of weeks. But things are essentially on “hold” right now. That’s because Wall Street is waiting anxiously for the Federal Reserve’s key interest rate decision after its May Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting this week. Now, I plan to discuss the details of that decision in a Market 360 later this week. But the reality is that there isn’t any big mystery about the Fed’s next key interest rate decision.

After the major indices experienced their worst drops in years in the beginning of April, they’ve since bounced back strongly. In fact, the S&P 500 and Dow recorded gains nine days in a row – the first time the S&P 500 has rallied for nine consecutive days in 20 years. The fact is a handful of key economic reports, combined with signs of potential progress on tariffs, as well as a number of solid earnings reports, all gave Wall Street reason to cheer.

The economy is at a tipping point right now. It’s shifting faster and deeper than most investors realize. Take the situation with tariffs, for example. Whether you’re a fan of President Trump or not, I think we can all agree that the rollout of the tariffs was quite a whirlwind. Things are moving fast, and for many, it’s starting to feel chaotic. That’s why this week’s reports on GDP, inflation and jobs were so important. They offer the first real clues about what’s brewing beneath the surface.

2 weeks ago | investorplace.com | Louis Navellier

Let’s be honest, folks. Out of the 500 companies in the S&P 500, only a few really can really swing the market with an earnings report or a product announcement. For example, we’re in the heart of earnings season right now.
