NEXT 72 HOURS COULD DECIDE WHERE MARKETS GO FOR THE REST OF THE QUARTER.

Here's what's happening:

1. Tuesday, Consumer Confidence

A weak print signals households are pulling back on spending, a bad sign for the whole economy.

2. Wednesday, FOMC Rate Decision

Markets are pricing roughly a 25% chance of a hike. Any surprise here moves every asset class at once.

3. Wednesday, Microsoft & Meta Earnings

Meta is expected to post EPS near $7.18-7.24 on $60.2B revenue. A miss, or a bigger AI capex number, could hit the entire "Magnificent Seven" the way Alphabet's capex hike already has.

4. Thursday, PCE Inflation

The Fed's preferred gauge. A hot print here raises the odds of a hike even further.
