A “Benign” Green Scene for Markets Heading Into Thanksgiving Week (E192)
DoubleLine Portfolio Manager Samuel Lau and Analyst Mark Kimbrough review a positive run in the markets for the week of Nov. 18-22. The S&P Index (00:33) inched up, supporting likely healthy returns for the month and year; fixed income (2:09) was also positive, with all components of the Agg rising; and the broad commodities market (3:54) was up, with gold marking a strong week. A light week in Macro Land (5:04) included a mixed picture for initial and continuing jobless claims, a “warning” signal framing for the Conference Board’s LEI and some post-election U.S. PMI numbers. It was also a light week for Fedspeak (11:26), with the odds for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut in December still basically a coin flip. Next week’s (12:03) data will include home prices, personal income and spending, and the October PCE print. This episode was recorded Nov. 22, 2024, before market close.
Minutes is taking next week off but will return with weekly coverage Dec. 6, including a recap of November monthly market performance. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
