Weekly Commentary
Geopolitical Tension and Rate Cut Expectations Disappoint Markets

The NASDAQ fell all week from Monday's new all time high as oil tanker seizures, drone shootings and heated rhetoric raised tensions with Iran. Thursday did bring a reversal as comments by New York Fed President Williams seemed to imply a 0.5% Fed Funds Rate cut was imminent but this was dashed on Friday by a Wall Street Journal report that the rate cut was more likely to be just 0.25%.

The number of breakouts increased to 14 this week from just 3 last week with three of these closing over 10% higher. Cup and Handle pattern breakouts dominated with 9 0f the 14.
