On Thursday, the Federal Reserve Chair, Jerome Powell, delivered a speech at the Economic Club of New York where he said, “Inflation is still too high, and a few months of good data are only the beginning of what it will take to build confidence that inflation is moving down sustainably toward our goal.” Traders immediately removed the likelihood of a November rate increase, but it will take 1½ weeks for the confirmation to arrive from Powell.

The largest contributor to falling values for U.S. equities may be the outlook for the third quarter earnings season, which appears to be lacklustre. Only about one-fifth of the S&P 500 have reported earnings so far, and the majority have beaten estimates, but downward revisions to EPS could make Q3 the fourth consecutive quarter of year-over-year earnings declines for the S&P 500.
