US unemployment rate at a 40 year low of 3.5%

The US economy is super strong.
No recession in sight.
Soft landing likely.
The markets are going to need to come to grips with (price in) a US Fed funds rate of 4.0% to 4.5% that stays there most of 2023 and ease back to 3.5% in 2024.

SP500 hit 3642, which is below the 62% Fib at 3669 and just above the 78% fib at 3633.
Once the wave 2 retrace exceeds the 62% Fib, the chance of the previous low holding is greatly reminisced

FYI Cobra is showing two stats calling for a lower low than 3584.
1) since year 1997, Down three weeks in a row, there is a 84% chance (49 of 58) of a lower low.
2) NYMO drops significantly below -100, then a lower low is likely within a messy bottoming process that will last several months (i.e. not likely a V-bottom).
