  • Stocks Tumble as Hotter-Than-Expected Inflation Data Rattles Investors
    2026/01/14
    Listeners, today's US stock market saw declines across major indices as a hotter-than-expected Producer Price Index report fueled concerns over inflation and volatility. According to TheStreet, the Nasdaq fell one point four five percent, the S and P five hundred dropped zero point eight nine percent, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down zero point one six percent in early trading, with tech stocks like Broadcom down four point zero two percent, Oracle down three point one six percent, and Nvidia down two point five nine percent leading the pullback[1]. Nasdaq reports the S and P five hundred closed down zero point two percent, or thirteen point five three points, at six thousand nine hundred sixty-three point seven four points, with financials and communication services as the worst performers[2].

    Energy and consumer defensive sectors bucked the trend as top gainers, while tech and banks lagged amid mixed bank earnings from companies like Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and Citigroup that failed to impress investors[1]. Most actively traded stocks included tech heavyweights, with Broadcom and Nvidia among notable decliners; silver futures hit a new all-time high near ninety-two dollars per ounce, and gold neared records at four thousand six hundred nine dollars and fifty cents per ounce[1].

    The Supreme Court delayed its decision on Trump tariff cases and Voting Rights Act rulings, adding uncertainty[1]. Key data releases included the Producer Price Index, Advance Monthly Sales for Retail and Food Services, Business Formation Statistics, and Existing Home Sales, which contributed to market jitters[1][5][7].

    Pre-market futures pointed lower, signaling caution. Watch for tomorrow's retail sales details and Fed remarks from leaders like Raphael Bostic. Potential catalysts include ongoing tariff debates and fiscal stimulus impacts, per Wells Fargo's outlook forecasting two point three percent real G D P growth in two thousand twenty-six[6].

  • Stocks Hit New Highs as Inflation Cools, Walmart Surges on Nasdaq 100 Inclusion
    2026/01/13
    The S and P five hundred rose zero point two percent, or ten point nine nine points, to close at six thousand nine hundred seventy seven point two seven, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average added zero point two percent, or eighty six point one three points, to forty nine thousand five hundred ninety point two zero, and the Nasdaq Composite gained zero point three percent, or sixty two point five six points, to twenty three thousand seven hundred thirty three point nine zero, all hitting fresh all time highs according to Saxo Bank and Zacks reports. Stocks wobbled early on Justice Department threats against Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell but recovered as traders focused on rates and earnings, with consumer staples leading sectors up one point four percent via the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR, followed by industrials at zero point eight percent and materials at zero point five percent, per Zacks. Walmart surged three percent on Nasdaq one hundred inclusion and artificial intelligence features, Alphabet added one percent after Apple adopted Gemini for Siri, but Capital One plunged six point four percent and Citigroup dropped three percent on President Trump's proposed ten percent credit card rate cap in United States dollars, as noted by Saxo Bank and Zacks.

    Walmart topped active trading amid its rally, with tech names boosting the Nasdaq, while the CBOE Volatility Index rose four point three five percent to fifteen point one two amid central bank scrutiny.

    Today's Consumer Price Index data came in below expectations, signaling cooling inflation and supporting real wage gains for workers, according to White House statements and Bureau of Labor Statistics releases, though full impacts are pending.

    S and P five hundred futures imply a plus or minus twenty nine point move tomorrow around inflation and first big bank earnings like those from major lenders, with eyes on China trade figures and policy signals as potential catalysts, per Saxo Bank.

  • US Stocks Surge Amid Favorable Labor Data and Fed Outlook
    2026/01/09
    According to Seattle Post Intelligencer, the major United States indexes finished higher today, with the Standard and Poor five hundred up about one hundred twenty one points, or roughly one point eight percent, the Dow Jones Industrial Average up about one thousand four hundred forty one points, or roughly three percent, and the Nasdaq Composite up about four hundred twenty nine points, or roughly one point eight percent.[Seattle Post Intelligencer] Reports from Tip Ranks note that this extends a strong start to the year as technology and large capitalization growth stocks continue to attract buying.[Tip Ranks]

    According to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, the latest employment report showed nonfarm payrolls rising by about fifty thousand in December and the unemployment rate holding near four and four tenths percent, which investors interpreted as consistent with a gradual Federal Reserve interest rate cutting path rather than forcing new tightening.[United States Bureau of Labor Statistics] The Conference Board highlights that a generally steady labor market is giving the Federal Reserve room to pause and evaluate earlier policy moves, which helped support risk appetite.[The Conference Board] Sector commentary from Investor’s Business Daily suggests technology and communication services were among the stronger groups, while more defensive areas such as utilities lagged.[Investor’s Business Daily]

    According to Bloomberg, United States equity futures were modestly higher into the close as Treasury yields edged up but remained contained, and traders looked ahead to upcoming inflation data and further Federal Reserve commentary.[Bloomberg] The United States Census Bureau notes several economic releases on income, poverty, and business conditions later in January that could act as secondary catalysts for sentiment.[United States Census Bureau] Looking forward to tomorrow, listeners will be watching for any follow up market reaction to the labor report, early corporate earnings preannouncements, and guidance from Federal Reserve officials that could shift expectations for the next interest rate decision.

  • Stocks Mixed as Strong Data Meets Record Highs
    2026/01/08
    United States stocks finished mixed today as investors digested strong economic data against a backdrop of recently set record highs. According to Nasdaq, the Standard and Poor five hundred index fell about twenty four points, or roughly zero point three percent, to around six thousand nine hundred twenty one United States dollars, while the tech heavy Nasdaq Composite rose about thirty seven points, or roughly zero point two percent, to about twenty three thousand five hundred eighty four United States dollars, and eight of the eleven major sectors declined, led by weakness in technology and consumer related names.[2] Equity Clock notes that the large capitalisation benchmark remains in a narrowing rising range, with traders watching the psychologically important seven thousand level as upside resistance and recent gaps near six thousand eight hundred thirty United States dollars as key support, keeping the overall trend still bullish despite today’s pullback.[1]

    Zacks reports that pre market futures were modestly negative this morning, with Dow futures down about one hundred seventy seven points, and futures tied to the Standard and Poor five hundred and Nasdaq weaker as well, even though economic data were broadly strong.[3] Zacks highlights that weekly initial jobless claims held near two hundred eight thousand and that third quarter United States productivity jumped about four point nine percent, while the United States trade deficit narrowed sharply to about twenty nine point four billion United States dollars, its lowest level since two thousand nine, which the United States Bureau of Economic Analysis confirms for October two thousand twenty five.[3][7] These data supported the idea of a resilient economy with cooling inflation pressures, but after a powerful rally into new highs, many investors used the news as an opportunity to take profits rather than chase prices higher.[1][3]

    Looking ahead, Zacks points out that traders are focused on tomorrow’s nonfarm payrolls report from the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics and an upcoming United States consumer credit release, both potential catalysts for interest rate expectations and equity volatility.[3] Madison Investments adds that markets are entering the year with high valuations after a roughly seventeen point nine percent gain for the Standard and Poor five hundred index in two thousand twenty five, suggesting that earnings reports and Federal Reserve policy signals in coming weeks could drive sharper sector rotations between technology, industrials, utilities, and value oriented shares.[4]

    2026/01/05
    Listeners, the US stock market kicked off 2026 on a positive note today, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising one point two percent, the S and P five hundred up zero point six percent, and the Nasdaq Composite adding zero point seven percent, according to Register Citizen reports. This helped offset last week's declines, where the S and P five hundred fell one percent, Nasdaq dropped one point five two percent, and Dow slid zero point six seven percent amid year-end profit-taking and pressure from Federal Reserve meeting minutes showing a divided committee on interest rates, as detailed by Murray Financial Services and H Z Capital. Key drivers included strength in A I chip stocks, while software companies lagged, per those sources.

    Notable sectors saw technology mixed, with A I infrastructure outperforming broader tech, according to Nineteen Nineteen Investment Counsel. Most actively traded stocks likely centered on mega-caps like Nvidia and Microsoft amid A I worries, though specifics for today remain light. No major percentage gainers or losers stood out prominently in reports. Significant news included low initial jobless claims at one hundred ninety-nine thousand, signaling a stable labor market heading into the year, from Clearstead.

    Pre-market futures indications are unavailable in current data, but watch tomorrow's Institute of Supply Management Manufacturing Index and auto sales, followed by Purchasing Managers Index Services on Tuesday, A D P Employment Report Wednesday, and Friday's key Employment Report, per Econoday via Murray Financial Services. Upcoming catalysts include President Trump's Fed Chair nominee announcement, potentially impacting rate views, as noted by Nineteen Nineteen Investment Counsel.

Federal Reserve outlook points to a pause in rate cuts early 2026 after bringing federal funds to 3.50 to 3.75 percent range, with data-dependent decisions amid inflation above 2 percent target[4]. Watch nonfarm productivity, unit labor costs, and continuing jobless claims releases soon, via Trading Economics calendar[9].
