U.S. Stock Market Surge Means The Fed Is Not Finished
(Tue Jun 06 13:50 2000)
Last week?s 19% surge in the
Nasdaq was fueled by the
expectation that the Fed
tightening cycle has ended. The
market rally in the face of some
softer economic data highlights
that the speculative fever in the
market has not yet been
extinguished, despite the poor
performance over the past few
months. Ironically, the resilience
of the equity market, reflecting
the excessive optimism by
investors, underscores that the
Fed cannot delay further rate
hikes for long. Moreover, the
magnitude in the market moves
and wild swings in sentiment are
typical near market peaks. The
implication is that the equity
market, especially the Nasdaq,
should soon head lower, once
bond yields rebound and the
expectation for higher rates
returns.
