About this listen

 Fresh news and strategies for traders. SPY Trader episode #1333. This week's market outlook focuses on the critical CPI report and its impact on Federal Reserve rate cut expectations, with a 90% probability now on a September cut. The S&P 500 faces resistance while the Nasdaq hits new highs, driven by robust tech earnings, especially in AI. The softening labor market reinforces the case for rate easing. We also discuss President Trump's tariff policies, sector performance (tech, financials, healthcare, energy), and key company earnings from Cisco and AMC. Investment strategy advises a balanced approach with a tilt towards growth (AI) and some defensive exposure, with specific ETF recommendations (VOO, QQQ, XLF, AGG). Cautions include avoiding highly leveraged investments and assessing tariff exposure.
