Earlier this year, that gauge tumbled to its lowest in nearly 30 years,when stocks swooned on worries over how the Federal Reserve’s monetary tightening would hit the economy.

“If in fact a soft landing is possible, then you’d want to see the kind of data inputs that we have seen thus far," said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at B. Riley Wealth. "Strong jobs number and declining inflation would both be important inputs into that theory.” Until recently, optimism was hard to come by.
