After snapping impressive multi-day streaks last week, major U.S. indices were pressured by inflation concerns, closing in the red on Monday. Boeing supported the Dow Jones Industrial Average early in the session, as the symbol railed over 5%, boosting the blue-chip index only to still close in the red as market-wide inflation concerns continue to mount. On Tuesday, the retail sales, industrial production, and import price index will be in the limelight, as traders await further inflation indicators that could inspire continued volatility or signal direction. Long-term Treasury yields hit a recent high the dollar, oil futures, and gold futures traded to muted results. Today’s economic calendar was light, but there were several key earnings announcements scheduled for the day. Earnings continue to be the main factor influencing markets; TGT, WMT, and BIDU are key earnings announcements this week that can potentially influence the market direction. The VIX trades near the $17 level and fear of runaway inflation can impact the next move in the market as well. Please watch the critical support levels on the SPY at $462 and then at $455 as we do expect the market to continue to pull back in the next two weeks and then rebound toward the end of the month/early December. Globally, Asian markets traded to mixed results while European markets closed higher. We encourage all market commentary readers to maintain clearly defined stop levels for all positions. For reference, the SPY Seasonal Chart is shown below:
