❤️Tonight, two key events will determine the direction of the market:
The release of the non-farm payroll data and Powell's speech.
The non-farm payroll data will be released one hour before the market opens, and Powell's speech is scheduled for noon.
These two events may lead to the following scenarios:
If the non-farm payroll data is very poor and Powell reassures the market: the market will rise initially and then fall, and may continue to decline next week.
If the non-farm payroll data meets expectations and Powell reassures the market: the market will see a rebound, ideally recovering the losses from Thursday, with QQQ returning to 500 points.
If the non-farm payroll data is very poor and Powell does not reassure the market, this week will end with a 'Black Friday.' Bulls will completely give up, and the stock index will reach extreme pressure levels.
The best-case scenario is that after all the bad news is out next week, the market begins a technical rebound, but after the rebound ends, it will quickly continue to fall, possibly for up to 3 months, similar to the trend in the second half of 2023.
If the non-farm payroll data meets expectations and Powell does not reassure the market, delivering hawkish remarks: the market will mainly move sideways, initially rising and then falling, ultimately recovering some of the gains.
In summary, the momentum does not look good, everyone should be prepared!
