Team,
Four more trading sessions until CPI! Let’s take a look at how the price action is developing in the lead up to the event.

Overnight/Economic Data
Today’s session kicked off with initial jobless claims that came in lighter than expected.
Which kept the bid in the dollar index alive! I don’t think this massive run is getting the attention it deserves, and I’m shocked at how resilient global financial markets have been in the face of it.
China hit US markets with a curveball!
Equity Dashboard
Equity breadth finished the session weak with only 31% advancers.
And AAPL showed relative weakness given the potential implications of the China ban. With how big of a weight AAPL has in the headline indices, today’s action could have been a lot worse, but some other names picked up the slack.
Equity Index MTD September Performance
All indices are in negative territory for September.
