Ultimately, the strategist thinks the overall theme will be that inflation is "remaining high" and that it's not making its way back towards 2% like some anticipate. "We have a tremendous amount of uncertainty as to where we're going from here, because we have conflicting stories," Fernandez said. "We can have weak trends in unemployment, weak household income, consumer spending weak, and then we can have the expectation of 14% earnings growth next year and strong revenues. All the puzzle pieces don't quite fit together." "We just need more information before we can make a true statement as to what the long term is going to look like," she continued.
