Market is repricing Fed rate cut expectations, and that's 'not great for risk assets': Strategist

Mounting geopolitical pressures and stocks not reacting as positively to earnings results as Wall Street had hoped, concerns over the strength of the market are beginning to creep in. Big names in tech - including Microsoft (MSFT) and Amazon (AMZN) will report their latest quarterly earnings in the coming weeks - have helped lead the recent rally seen in the market.
State Street Global Markets Head of Equity Research Marija Veitmane joins Yahoo Finance to discuss what will test the mettle of markets the most, including geopolitical woes and Big Tech earnings.
"Next week we have a big tech week which is hopefully one part of the market that consensus is very constructive for and that is part of the market that maybe is less affected by [interest] rate hikes, companies are larger, balance sheets are stronger. So that is potentially something [that] can kind of put floor under stocks," Veitmane explains.

It's seem to me like the past few weeks of sell offs where almost like the equivalent of a reaction to a .25 or even .50 rate hike. I don't think there will be any major changes in policy before the next election results.

Ya think? Only reason Powell keeps talks on rates dovish is to keep the market and banks from throwing their temper tantrum and having a meltdown.

Duh

[@jgwinnel]

They really need to drop rate cuts for 2024.

[@steveyoungl7881]

Problem is if they do, it will cause more inflation...

@@steveyoungl7881 they should be hiking. This talk about dropping rates needs to stop as inflation isn’t under control.
