The Stock Market This Week

This week, we’ve got a full 5-days of action for everything from penny stocks to mega-caps in the stock market. It isn’t solely about economic events either. We’ll see the kick-off of the latest earnings season to highlight some notable companies. Mix in some Fed & central banker speaking engagements, which could be a recipe for more volatility ahead.

Last week, the first handful of days of the New Year brought a topsy-turvey stock market. But Friday’s session capped off a technically bullish week to start 2023. Markets have been trading in a tight sideways channel for weeks following the previously hawkish Fed meeting and press conference. Meanwhile, the latest round of Fed minutes from December confirmed what most had already presumed. That is, the Fed isn’t planning on sorting its stance on rates.

Last week’s comments from central bankers, including Fed member Cook, helped bring a bit of optimism to the market. Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook highlighted signs that inflationary pressures could be easing.

“Recent data suggest that labor-compensation growth has indeed started to decelerate somewhat over the past year…Crucially, we must be vigilant to ensure that pandemic-era cost pressures and disruptions do not have lasting effects on inflation. If cost shocks and supply disruptions keep inflation elevated for a long enough period, households’ and firms’ inflation expectations could move higher—a development that could put additional upward pressure on inflation.”

Other Fed officials echoed this sentiment as well. Richmond Fed President Thomas Barkin stated in a speech in North Carolina, “We still have work to do. Inflation is too high, and we will need to stay on the case until it is sustainably back to our 2 percent target.”

Stock Market Economic Calendar For January 9th – January 13th

The week ahead has plenty to keep track of and will likely be closely watched by investors seeking clarity on timing for the Fed. Indeed, events like the next round of US CPI and a speaking engagement that includes Fed Chair Powell will be at the top of the list. Global economic events could also help sway markets. These include data from China, Japan, and Europe.

That will come out a few hours after the U.S. market closes on January 9th.
