We're in a 'very bond-driven equity market,' strategist says
US equities (^GSPC, ^DJI, ^IXIC) are sliding down Wednesday afternoon as the market begins to price in the current earnings season and awaits in anticipation for upcoming earnings. The debate for when the Federal Reserve will begin to cut interest rates continue, potentially affecting the rest of the market. Piper Sandler Chief Investment Strategist Michael Kantrowitz joins Market Domination to discuss the state of the stock market and gives insights into his market predictions moving forward. Kantrowitz affirms his S&P 500 target: "It's 5,250.
