Labor Market Strength Signals Potential Fed Rate Cuts; AI Narrative Pauses

He suggests this strength, coupled with disinflationary trends and lower oil prices, could lead to two or more Federal Reserve rate cuts later in the year. Jamner also discusses a leadership rotation in the market, favoring value and small-cap stocks over the "Magnificent Seven," and sees potential upside in consumer-focused companies. He concludes with a look at the A.I. narrative, anticipating a "pause that refreshes" as growth rates, though still strong, begin to slow.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.
