SYS Daily Report – Weekend Edition
Dow Hits Record as Inflation Eases and Rate Cut Expectations Rise
The stock market ended Friday on a mixed note. The Dow Jones Industrial Average reached a record close after subdued U.S. inflation data reinforced expectations of a significant rate cut at the Federal Reserve’s November meeting. The S&P 500 slipped by 0.13%, and the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.39%. However, all three major indexes recorded gains for the third consecutive week, bolstered by strong performance in sectors benefiting from rate cut optimism and global stimulus efforts. Small caps outperformed on Friday, with the Russell 2000 rising 0.7%, though it ended the week down 0.6%. The index appears to be setting up just below its 52-week high.

Russell 2000 (ETF) – Daily Chart
The latest data on the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index, the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, showed a 0.1% increase in August, slightly below July’s 0.2% rise. Over the past year, the PCE index increased by 2.2%, down from the previous 2.5% annual rise, indicating that inflationary pressures may be easing. Markets are now pricing in a 56.7% chance of a 50-basis-point rate cut in November, up from 49.9% before the inflation data release.
The Red-Light/Green-Light Breadth System
Treasury yields declined in response to the inflation data, with the benchmark 10-year yield falling 3.5 basis points to 3.754% after being rejected by the underside of resistance. The U.S. dollar also weakened, particularly against the Japanese yen, which firmed following news that former Defense Minister Shigeru Ishiba is poised to become Japan’s next prime minister. Ishiba’s stance, which opposes further monetary stimulus, led the yen to gain 1.82% against the dollar.

US Dollar – Weekly Chart
Global markets also experienced strong gains, spurred by stimulus measures from China. The MSCI Global Stock Index hit a record high, while European shares, represented by the STOXX 600 Index, closed at an all-time high. In China, the CSI 300 Index surged 15.7% for the week, marking its best performance since November 2008, as Beijing introduced interest rate cuts and liquidity injections to support the economy. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index also rose 13%, its strongest weekly gain since 1998.
China Large-Cap ETF – Weekly Chart
In Canada, the TSX Composite Index ended the day down 0.3% but extended its weekly winning streak, posting a 0.4% gain. Optimism around central bank interest rate cuts continued to drive demand for dividend-paying stocks, with financials and telecoms benefiting from the low-rate environment. However, the materials sector fell by 2.1% as gold prices pulled back from recent highs. The energy sector helped limit the index’s losses, rising 2% as oil prices rebounded slightly, with U.S. crude closing at $68.18 per barrel. However, price action is still trapped below its downward-sloping 10-week (or 50-day) moving average.

Crude Oil – Weekly Chart
Among commodities, aluminum prices reached a 16-week high in London, supported by fund buying following China’s stimulus announcements. Gold prices dipped 1% on Friday but remained on track for their best quarterly performance in over eight years, with silver still setting up below its 52-week high. Meanwhile, copper price slightly pulled back but ended higher on the week with a power move supported by the prospect of further stimulus from China. The uranium theme continues to have an extremely bullish setup when zoomed out to view the larger pattern. Bitcoin is still set up for a potential major breakout, causing many Bitcoin-related stocks, such as the miners and MicroStrategy, to be featured in the daily setups and unusual activity report.

Looking ahead, investors will focus on several key events next week, including a speech by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Monday, which could offer insights into future monetary policy. Additionally, labor market data, including job openings and the ADP employment report, will be released midweek, culminating in Friday’s nonfarm payroll report. Economists expect an increase of 142,000 jobs and an unemployment rate of 4.2%.
The market is also closely watching the tail end of the earnings season, with Carnival (CCL), Nike (NKE), Paychex (PAX), and Levi’s (LEVI) set to report next week.
The broader outlook remains optimistic as markets digest inflation data and weigh the prospects of potential interest rate cuts. While Friday was lackluster, particularly for AI chip stocks, the major indexes, including the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, ended the week on a strong note, maintaining their upward momentum. Central bank easing, both from the Fed and globally, is providing support for equities and commodities. It may be prudent to step back and examine weekly charts, as many leading stocks have extended gains and could pull back from their recent highs. Sectors sensitive to lower rates, such as financials, are well-positioned to benefit, while global stimulus, particularly from China, adds further momentum. Notably, China’s stimulus has also boosted commodities. The increasing demand for clean energy continues to drive momentum in uranium and metals linked to renewable energy.
As we approach key earnings reports and labor data, it’s important to remain cautious by managing downside risks while being ready to seize emerging opportunities. Despite short-term volatility, the rally seems poised to extend into the final quarter, supported by central bank actions and steady economic indicators.
“Momentum can drive massive gains, but without managing risk, those gains can vanish in an instant.” — Larry Hite
