With the April inflation data about to be released over the next two sessions, it's interesting to note that we currently have (McClellan) "Summation Failure" warnings in effect in several market areas that could cause a "crash like" sequence in the equity markets over the next few sessions. Weakest areas remain with the small caps, mid caps and the secondary NASDAQ marketplace in that order, with the large caps having the best chance of market buoyancy on any near term bearish ambush. The price of gold looks ready now to make a concentrated effort to move into new all time high territory which would then suggest that interest rates will be moving lower on a short term trending basis. Bottom line here is that there has been a whole lot of pushing and pulling going on for the last several weeks here in the United States markets, but the good news is that we're about to get a decisive decision on which side will be in control of price movement for the rest of the month of May and into the beginning of June by the end of the week.

 

Place your bets.

"a key U.S. inflation report that came in very close to market expectations...4.9% for April."

 

She rolled SNAKE EYES!

Shoulda played the field at a 5.6% disadvantage...close to inflation disadvantage.

 

Guess I'll just have another drink...

That's what the "house" is hoping for...just to keep you around for more abuse.

That 4.9% excludes food and energy inflation. Just saying.

I wouldn't say the data has zero relevance but it is muted. The market is just biding time for next months data, the data that is supposed to be quite favorble for the bulls.. I think we will head down some, then regroup for the big charge net month. (JMHO)

My bet will be placed depending on outcome of the debt ceiling talks.
