Saturday Trades Tuesday Update 2/6/2024

Markets mixed and searching for direction

After Monday’s small selloff markets are mixed this morning. They appear to be searching for direction, the trend is still higher but could be changing.

There appears to be more action, the economic data is good if you believe in B.S. Between the FED interview on 60 Minutes and the rising inflation the FED can’t cut rates.

The big question: since the entire rally has been built on a cut in rates, what happens if they don’t cut?
