Here to discuss all that is adam parker, Research Founder and ceo, and a cnbc contributor. Adam, there were all kinds of reasons it made sense to anticipate a little bit of chop coming into august seasonals, sentiment, technicals, valuation, arguably, yields are doing what theyre doing, but Corporate America has kind of shown its hand on earnings for the most part this earnings season. Better than anticipated. The consensus is holding up on a forward basis. Where does that leave you in terms of whether, in fact, you know, the market can skate without much more of a correction i mean, if youre reacting week over week or, say, over the last month, i dont think the data make you more negative. No. I think if you were starting july 1, saying, im 50 , were up ten, down ten, im like 60 40 up now because i think the Big Companies delivered pretty Solid Earnings reports their earnings are up pretty much for all of them, google, amazon, meta nvidias numbers are up.

Decline and a loss of momentum in the market overall. Steve, this is one of those situations where over the last couple of weeks there have been folks who have said the market has been hot this year its due for maybe a breather. Is the problem right now the idea that there is no nearterm catalyst to propel things back towards the upside yeah, but you could argue there were no nearterm catalysts to propel it to the upside from the beginning of the year in fact, there are negative catalysts that should have propelled it downward.
