Stocks Brace for the FOMC
The small rally we saw in stocks yesterday was quickly batted down. We managed to make a run for 3909, which was our target and lower bound of some congestion from earlier this month. However, we promptly rejected that level, as anticipated, and immediately sought support again at lows just above 3825. The markets, usually quiet before an FOMC, reacted out of one last burst of fear for the impending meeting today at 2PM EST. It is expected that we will get yet another 75 bps rate hike, with some saying it could be as high as 100 bps. After this, it is likely that we see a relief rally that could test the 3900's again, with 4009 being the ultimate target for a rally. If we sell off again then we should have support at the base of the 3800's.
