Buyers have supported the market on this historic day.

PRE-OPEN MARKET COMMENTS FRIDAY – Yesterday the market rallied to a new all-time high. PPI dropped after a recent spike and the rise in CPI was deemed as temporary. Traders are focused on a 25 basis point rate cut next week and rhetoric that would suggest another 25 basis point cut this year.

The market is relatively flat overnight. Trump is threatening a tariff increase on China and India if they continue to buy oil from Russia. He is encouraging Europe to do the same.

Overseas markets were mixed to slightly higher and the S&P 500 is relatively flat. I am expecting a fairly dull day today. I would not chase an early rally. The gains from yesterday are likely to be tested and we will have an opportunity to enter during a bid check. If you look at all of the new relative highs the last few months, you’ll notice that they are followed by consolidation. These gains need to be digested.

Stocks that have recently been strong and that have compressed the last few days will be ready to stage the next leg higher. These are good longs for day trading and you won’t feel like you are chasing. Avoid buying stocks that have staged big rallies the last few days and that are opening higher. Those moves will attract profit taking.

Consumer Sentiment will be released 30 minutes after the open.

Yesterday’s range is support and resistance.
