Hell Bent On SPX $6666
From Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour recorded on Aug 13, 2025
In this short clip from Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour, recorded on Aug 13, 2025, Samantha LaDuc and Hans Albrecht discuss how surprising Fed rate cut expectations, withheld jobs data, and the AI productivity boom are fueling a powerful market rally.
They note that markets are pricing in aggressive monetary easing—potentially 150-175 basis points—without economic red flags like high unemployment or inflation spikes.
AI optimism, liquidity from potential mortgage refinancing, and short covering are driving the S&P 500 toward 6,500 and possibly higher, with melt-up targets as high as 8,200.
Both caution that sustained gains will require stable economic data, controlled unemployment, and tangible productivity benefits from AI.
