The Week Ahead - Key Events and Focus

With the last week of the quarter we will have a busy week ahead.  The corporate calendar will pick up a little steam with notable earnings including but not limited to ASNA, FDS, INFO, JBL, NEOG KBH, NKE, KMX, ATU, BBBY, ACN, CAG, and MTN. there will also be a notable uptick in analyst meetings and conferences.

The economic calendar will be busy with domestic data including Chicago and Dallas Fed activity and manufacturing meetings as well as S&P case Shiller home price index. Mid week we will see an important FOMC rate decision and Q2 final GDP and at the end of the week we will get a look at personal income / and spending reports. We will also see a fairly busy week abroad with Euro-zone reporting consumer confidence numbers and ECB economic bulletin and CPI data later in the week.

With the trade talks completely off between the US and China, expect this to weigh on the markets early in the week.  About $200 billion of Chinese products will be subject to tariffs starting Monday. 

Bullish sentiment for the S&P ended Friday at 78% down from the previous day of 83% in the extreme zone.  The Nasdaq bullish sentiment is at 67% and notably diverging from price action.  The big sentiment new is the USD bullish sentiment is at 11% and down from a recent peak of 96%.  I'm not saying this is the now in the USD but we should be open to bounces.  

I'm back on the desk tomorrow after my short trip to California and will have a full Daily Note.
