20/10/23. Friday Morning Finspiration Report.

Stocks down, Energy up, Gold up.

 Fed Head Powell speech last night produced nothing new in the way of monetary policy but the stock market reacted in a volatile manner, down, then up, then down, down down.

The market was relatively docile before he spoke but after effects were negative.


Dow Jones -0.75%.  SP500 -0.85%.  Nasdaq -0.96%.  Small Caps -1.55%.  Banks -1.33%.

SP500.

Sp500 seems destined to retest the 200-Day MA.  If that fails, we may be looking at a bear market correction.  But let's cross that bridge if it happens.

Commodities.

 


Commodities Index.  +1.04%.  Energy +1.35%.  Base Metals +0.11%.  Agriculture +0.23%.  Gold +1.23%.

The Australian market is well down this morning - more than -1%.  Energy is the only sector on the positive side.
