Dow Jones (DJIA) Technical: Poised for a potential bullish breakout as US CPI looms
Since Fed Chair Powell’s dovish pivot at Jackson Hole on 22 Aug, the Dow Jones has lagged peers, slipping 0.3% while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 hit fresh record highs and the Russell 2000 gained 0.7%. Markets now fully price a 25 bps Fed rate cut on 17 Sep, with high odds of two more cuts by year-end.
