Key Challenge for Stock-Market Rally

Bloomberg:

  • Fed officials saw need to slow rate-hike pace ‘at some point’

MarketWatch:

  • U.S. stocks end lower as investors weigh fed minutes, retail sales
  • Stock-market rally faces key challenge at S&P 500’s 200-day moving average
  • Australia’s jobless rate falls to a fresh 48-year low

The key challenge remains for the S&P 500 to break its 200 day moving average to signal a real bull market.
