Squawk Morning Briefing: Impending Death Cross
The S&P 500 seems destined to have a death cross today. The colorfully named event is used to describe when the 50 day moving average crosses below the 200 day moving average.

Squawk Morning Briefing:How High Will it Bounce?
Right now there is no immediate way to predict if Tuesday’s bounce is now over or if it has further to go. We’ll have to wait and see as there are scenarios which support both cases and we present them in today’s videos. However, once it is complete (either here or from higher levels) we […]

Squawk Morning Briefing: The Austrians Are Coming
With the U. S. House of Representatives having passed a debt ceiling increase and the Senate poised to follow suit, it looks like the debt ceiling issue (but not the debt issue) may be behind us. There may be some reaction to final passage, but once that’s out of the way, traders’ attention will likely […]
Squawk Morning Briefing: Decisive Outcomes
New continues to drive the market and futures are up on news of a debt ceiling agreement. It remains to be seen whether that agreement will lead to passage of legislation. A vote is expected today, but the only decisive action would be if it is passed and signed into law. A first attempt to […]
