Fresh news and strategies for traders. SPY Trader episode #1302. Welcome back, traders, to Spy Trader, your goto podcast for navigating the ups and downs of the market! I'm your host, Candlestick Carl, and it's 6 am on Monday, July 14th, 2025, Pacific time. We've got a lot to unpack today as we kick off another trading week. First up, the latest inflation data released over the weekend showed a slight cooling in core consumer prices, which is certainly a positive sign, but the overall headline inflation remains sticky. We also saw some mixed corporate earnings reports last week, with tech giants generally outperforming but some consumer discretionary companies showing signs of weakness. On the geopolitical front, tensions in the Middle East seem to be easing slightly, which is providing a bit of a calm before the storm, but energy prices are still something to keep an eye on. The market's reaction to the inflation data has been somewhat muted. While a cooling core inflation is good news for the Federal Reserve's rate hike trajectory, the sticky headline number suggests we might not see aggressive rate cuts anytime soon. This 'higher for longer' interest rate environment continues to put pressure on growth stocks, though the earnings resilience from big tech is providing some underlying support to the S&P 500. The easing geopolitical tensions are a net positive, reducing the tail risk that could quickly disrupt market sentiment and supply chains. Given this landscape, for SPY traders, I'm recommending a cautiously optimistic approach for the early part of this week. The S&P 500 has been showing resilience around its 50day moving average. If we see continued strength and a breach above key resistance levels, perhaps around 5400 on the S&P 500 index, then looking at bullish calls on SPY could be a valid strategy. However, be mindful of the upcoming Fed minutes release later in the week. If the minutes signal a more hawkish stance than anticipated, we could see a quick reversal. So, consider buying shortdated puts as a hedge or for a quick profit if the market reacts negatively. My reasoning is that while inflation is moderating, the Fed's stance is still the primary driver. Play the breakouts and breakdowns, but keep your stop losses tight, especially with earnings season continuing to unfold. Focus on sectors showing real earnings strength, like certain parts of technology and healthcare, and be wary of highly cyclical consumer discretionary stocks until we see more definitive signs of consumer spending picking up. That's all for now, traders. Stay safe out there, and I'll catch you on the next episode of Spy Trader!
