Afternoon/Evening Headlines
Bloomberg:
- Futures traders pared bets the Federal Reserve will boost its benchmark interest rate to 4.75% by April after the central bank raised rates a 13th straight time and signaled it’s moving closer to the end of the increases.
- Iraqis residing in the US began casting absentee ballots today at eight polling places across the country for Iraq’s parliamentary elections.
CNBC:
- Delphi Corp. CEO Steve Miller said the bankrupt auto-parts maker will likely come to a labor agreement with the UAW in the first quarter of next year.
- A judge granted a preliminary injunction today against a potential strike by NYC transit workers.
BOTTOM LINE: The Portfolio finished lower today on losses in my Medical longs and Retail longs. I added to my VLO short and added IWM and QQQQ shorts in the afternoon, thus leaving the Portfolio 75% net long. The tone of the market was mixed today as the advance/decline line finished slightly lower, sector performance was mostly positive and volume was above average. Measures of investor anxiety were mostly lower into the close. I still expect stocks to finish the year strongly with the S&P 500 returning around 10%. However, in the near term, it appears more consolidation is necessary.
