Morning Commentary
It was another session that may have seemed ho-hum yesterday, but it was like tectonic plates rubbing beneath the surface of a fault line. This is the prelude to a big move. Consumer Discretionary (XLY) led the way - Americans keep spending.
In addition to Cyber Monday bringing in more than expected, the latest Redbook saw a huge spike in sales.
Still, the week’s focus is inflation, ahead of tomorrow’s Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) release. The Cleveland Fed sees a negative Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation on a month-to-month basis.
RIP Charlie Munger. The loveable curmudgeon and investing legend, passed away yesterday at 99. What a hell of a life

Today’s Session
Lots of data is out this morning, but the driving force for the market comes from good old-fashioned earnings. Software names dominate.
*CrowdStrike (CRWD)
*Workday (WDAY)
*Intuit (INTU)
*WSS positions (Hotline or Swing)
The Software index has been on fire and probably trades a lot higher.
GDP was revised higher. More on this in the afternoon note.
Street Warming to Rate Cuts
The change of a rate cut in Mach is growing.
