Recent July PCE inflation at 3.7% year-over-year, slightly above forecasts with core at 3.3%, has lifted market-implied odds of a Federal Reserve rate hike in September to around 42-44% while the policy rate holds at 3.50-3.75%. This sticky inflation backdrop coincides with robust S&P 500 earnings growth, including a projected 33.5% year-over-year jump in Q2 adjusted profits led by AI-related companies, supporting the index near 7,677 amid 12% year-to-date gains. Analyst consensus points to a modest rise to roughly 7,900 by year-end, reflecting resilient corporate fundamentals offset by valuation concerns and potential policy tightening ahead of upcoming FOMC meetings and inflation releases.
