The S&P 500 surged 15% in the second quarter, yet it has been roughly flat over the past month as mixed economic data and geopolitical tensions weigh on markets. Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh declined to cut interest rates in his first meeting, while the FOMC expects a rate hike before year-end with May CPI rising 4.1% against a 2% target. President Trump declared the ceasefire with Iran over, causing oil prices to spike again. The market's CAPE ratio stands at 41, near the 2000 peak of 44 that preceded a major crash, prompting caution about high valuations.
