13. Revisiting college. Yesterday we noted that college tuition had declined for the first time in 30 years. There's still a long way to go to meet wage growth.

14. Supply chain (I). “The U.S. Supply Chain Index in July was back above neutral for the first time in nearly three years on the back of the continuing strong rebounds in inventories and capacity utilization.”

25. The rebound in the US10Y shows the market thinks Fed will shift sometime next year. From WSJ: “The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield has peaked before the federal-funds rate each time the Federal Reserve has raised interest rates the past few decades. Investors are divided on whether this time will be different.”

WSJ

26. Great breadth. S&P 500 percentage of stocks above their 20-, 50- and 200-day moving averages:

  • 20DMA (blue) = 87.5%

  • 50DMA (red) = 92.2%

  • 200DMA (purple) = 46.9%

TradingView

27. Bull market coming? With the above in mind, here’s how the S&P does after more than 90% of stocks are above the 50-day moving average.

31. Still strong. And finally, the S&P 500 is on pace for its 3rd best summer ever.
