June 7th - As the conflict with Iran triggers global inflationary pressures, the European Central Bank (ECB) is expected to raise interest rates by 25 basis points next week, becoming the first major central bank among the G7 to tighten monetary policy. Markets anticipate at least one more rate hike this year. In contrast, the Bank of Canada is likely to keep its rates unchanged, while the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England are expected to remain on hold this month, observing the impact of the Iranian conflict. ECB officials aim to ensure that inflation in the Eurozone does not become deeply entrenched, but a rate hike would come at the cost of further dragging down an already weak economy. ECB President Christine Lagarde is likely to provide a clearer signal on the next steps at the press conference following the decision. Meanwhile, the ECB will also release its quarterly economic forecasts, assessing different scenarios of the energy shocks impact on the regional economy.On June 7th, Willie Walsh, Director General of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), stated that rising jet fuel prices are expected to lead to more airline bankruptcies and industry consolidation.

S&P 500 Price Forecast – Stock Markets Continue to Struggle

Technical Analysis of the S&P 500

Due to the ongoing pessimism, the S&P 500 has decreased somewhat during Thursday's trading session. At this time, it seems as if the market is prepared to go further, maybe attempting to approach the most recent lows at the 3637 level. In the end, this market should continue to see a lot of agitated behavior. I believe that fading rallies will remain a significant problem. The 50 Day EMA is now hanging in the general vicinity of the 3950 level, which serves as the ceiling at this time.


Ultimately, your indication to become engaged will be when you start to feel exhausted after brief rallies. Given the lack of global growth and the fact that inflation is still a problem, I do believe the downward trend will continue. Additionally, the Federal Reserve is rapidly tightening monetary policy, and as a result, a 100 basis point interest rate rise is being predicted. Due to the fact that the S&P 500 contains so many significant exporters, it is extremely probable that we will continue to see significant problems with the global economy.


In the end, a running season is approaching, so there could be some "hopium" waiting to happen, but after hearing J.P. Morgan declare, "We have never seen an economic scenario like this," during its results presentation, I don't think this earnings season will be cause for celebration. After a rally, I will suppress any indications of tiredness.
