The Bespoke Report – 5/8/26 – Checkmark Rally

The S&P has continued to leg higher in a picture-perfect breakout that now looks less like a “V” and more like a checkmark.

The market is now very extended and overbought, but when these type of rallies into uncharted territory eventually cool off, a new trading range is usually established at higher levels.  It’s what long-term bulls want to see.

We cover everything going on across markets and the economy in this week’s Bespoke Report newsletter.

Hormuz remained closed this week but markets are working very hard to look past that fact given the huge surge in stocks and drop in energy futures. We go through the week’s chaotic headlines in detail, but keep our eye on other equity market drivers as well: economic data in the US and abroad, risk premiums (and return potential) offered by US stocks and bonds, the very strong performance of emerging markets, and the inflation outlook including the critical question of whether inflation expectations will remain anchored amidst this latest shock to consumer prices.
