- *Improving Employment Numbers*: The unemployment rate, initially thought to be worsening, may not be as bad as expected. Jobless claims have decreased, and some economists believe the impact of Hurricane Beryl and summer shutdowns at automobile factories contributed to the temporary rise in unemployment ¹.

- *Unwinding of the "Carry Trade"*: The Bank of Japan's interest rate increase disrupted the "carry trade," causing investors to sell stocks to cover loans. However, JPMorgan estimates that about 75% of this trade has already unwound, suggesting the worst may be over ¹.

- *Potential Fed Rate Cuts*: Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell hinted at possible rate cuts in September, citing inflation and employment concerns. Rate cuts can benefit businesses by lowering borrowing costs, potentially boosting the market ¹.
