Hotter inflation

Outlook 03/14: U.S. stock futures remained in the green on Thursday despite a hotter-than-expected wholesale inflation reading. February’s producer price index, a measure of wholesale inflation, advanced 0.6% last month. Excluding food and energy prices, core PPI climbed 0.3% in February, compared to an estimate from economists that forecast headline PPI increased by 0.3% in February, or 0.2% for the core reading. The PPI report is the last major piece of economic data to be released prior to the Federal Reserve’s upcoming policy meeting, set for March 19-20.

/ESM24 (JUN 2024): YVAH 5242 YPOC 5236 YVAL 5232 GAP 5235.75

/ES Plan: Yesterday market closed balanced, but overnight looks more bullish, moving above value, so these're the opening and initial balance options for today:

A) If market moves above YVAH 5242 with bullish internals, buy towards YHOD 5247 ONH 5253 and PBT 5280.

B) If market moves below YVAH 5242 with bearish internals, sell towards GAP 5236 YVAL 5232 and YLOD 5217.

NoteRollover week. I´m quoting /ESM24 (June 2024). Usually rollover days show big divergences between Stocks vs. Futures, so try to play these days on defensive mode. Setups that usually work well, may fail completely.
