The S&P 500 trades near 7,674 amid cooling July labor data that reduced near-term rate-hike odds, even as core PCE inflation lingers above the Fed’s 2% target and Treasury yields remain elevated. Recent nonfarm payrolls misses and downward revisions have tempered expectations for aggressive monetary tightening at the September FOMC meeting, while robust second-quarter earnings growth and AI-driven capex continue to underpin equity valuations. Traders are monitoring the August 26 PCE release, Nvidia results, and Fed Chair Warsh’s Jackson Hole remarks for signals on the policy path versus growth trajectory. Analyst consensus points to year-end levels around 8,000, reflecting skin-in-the-game optimism tempered by sticky inflation and geopolitical oil-price risks.
