Good MorningEquity markets advanced last week, leaving the S&P 500 at a fresh all-time high. The move was partly driven by the cool read on CPI Wednesday, but the real market driver is earnings. The FOMC and inflation are worries but little more than bricks in the Wall of Worry because of economic strength and S&P 500 earnings. S&P 500 earnings are growing, and growth is accelerating. In this environment, the S&P 500 can continue to rise until the last penny of economic expansion and earnings growth is priced into the market. Based on technical indicators, that could mean another 12% to 15% upside by early next year.
Next week's hurdle will be retail sales. The May reading of Retail Sales data is due on Wednesday and may alter the outlook. Retail sales are expected to accelerate from the previous month and keep the pace above 3% year over year. A weak reading will pass so long as no significant contraction is posted. In that scenario, the long-anticipated recession may have arrived. Featured: A way to target $500 each week? (DTI)
