Stocks edged higher as traders awaited inflation data that will help shape the outlook for the U.S. Federal Reserve’s next steps.

Tom Essaye at The Sevens Report says he doesn’t think fundamentals have deteriorated enough to warrant de-risking and reducing equity or risk exposure — but he also wants to caution against dismissing the recent uptick in volatility.

Reduced equity positioning and a resumption of buybacks after a blackout period present a short-term window to buy the dip in U.S. stocks, according to Scott Rubner at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. The risk-reward for stock markets remains mixed over the summer months against the backdrop of weakening business activity and negative earnings revisions, according to JPMorgan Chase & Co strategists led by Mislav Matejka.
