2 Stocks to Trade as Volatility Ramps up on New Inflation Fears

by | Nov 10, 2021 | Market Updates

U.S. stock futures are down this morning on renewed inflation fears — and more in Wednesday’s stock market recap.

The 10-year Treasury yield also bounced after the latest Consumer Price Index data — which saw October’s consumer prices jump the most since 1990 — was announced. More on that below…

Rising rates discount the value of future earnings, which typically hurts high-flying tech stocks most. 

Tech names are drifting lower this morning in premarket trading. Names like Nvidia Corp. (Nasdaq: NVDA) were down more than 3%. Facebook parent Meta Platforms Inc. (Nasdaq: FB) fell 1%, while the sell-off in Tesla Inc. (Nasdaq: TSLA) continued, down 2% this morning after falling 12% on Tuesday.

Roger’s Radar: Inflation Fears Ramp up on Surging CPI Data

On my radar today is the put/call ratio falling below 70, which is its lowest level in almost a year. 

The Department of Labor also reported this morning that the latest Consumer Price Index surged at its fastest pace in 30 years, rising 6.2% over the past 12 months!

Per CNBC: 

The consumer price index jumped 6.2% from a year ago, well above the 5.9% estimate from economists polled by Dow Jones and the largest annual increase since 1990. On a monthly basis, the CPI increased 0.9% against the 0.6% estimate. The CPI is a basket of products ranging from gasoline and health care to groceries and rents.

“Wednesday’s Consumer Price Index showed another month of inflation data well above the Federal Reserve’s inflation target, primarily due to continued supply chain issues and labor shortages. If inflation doesn’t subside, the Federal Reserve may need to taper at a more substantial rate and hike interest rates, which could hurt stocks and bonds,” Quadratic Capital Management founder Nancy Davis said.
