☆ Morning Bid: Fed fillip, double trouble, triple A
▼ + stars: | 2023-02-02 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +4 min

It looks less like fighting the Fed, than a mild disagreement. Powell didn't endorse that market view - which now has just one more quarter point rise to a terminal rate under 4.9% by May and 40 basis points of cuts from there by December. But he seemed ambivalent about investors' more optimistic take on disinflation and indicated the central bank was increasingly keeping its options open about a 'couple of hikes'. Meta's stock boomed as its earnings update showed stricter cost controls and a new $40 billion share buyback. With the risk around the BoE's split monetary policy council for a smaller quarter point move, it was the euro that looks set to emerge the winner of the three big central bank events.

Wall Street finished the first month of 2023 on a high note, with the S & P 500 rising 6.2% for its best January performance since 2019.

☆ I see this year's budding stock rally signaling a different kind of bull market, one that's not so reliant on just a few stocks
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-29 | by ( Jim Cramer | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +11 min

This nascent bull market started with the peak in interest rates and the dollar back in the fall and then broadened to include bank and semiconductor stocks in 2023. That's right we created FANG a decade ago this week on "Mad Money," and it was a really good call — until it wasn't. The stability of a market that's based, in part, on the assumption of a JPMorgan (JPM) or an American Express or even a Boeing rallying on earnings, seems tidal to me. That's what's happening as we consider the market to be far bigger than any group of a half-dozen stocks. Yes, I am shredding the cynicism and heralding the new bull market, one that's not ignorant of what ails things, but is benignly rotational.
