FOMC Rate Cut Day

It is FOMC rate cut day and that means the stock market will be confused and trade in a non-sensical way after the announcement. Be prepared for wild swings.

Let the bond and currency market be your guide and not the stock market.

S&P 500 (SPY)

The S&P 500 continues to trend nicely higher, which would continue to suggest the index is heading towards 3,055. I would expect that trading is muted today ahead of the FOMC meeting at 2 PM.

Apple (AAPL)

Apple is breaking out today after delivering better than expected results and guidance. $217.40 is resistance for now, as I have noted several times. The stock is hovering right around those levels this morning. The next level to look for after this resistance level is around $223.

AMD is falling after results. I have not had a chance to look at this report very carefully yet. The support level at $32.30 appears to be holding for now. $31.40 is the next level down.
