Dow tumbles 500 points, posts worst day since March 2023 after hot inflation report: Live updates

Stocks dropped on Tuesday after hotter-than-expected inflation data for January spiked Treasury yields and raised doubts that the Federal Reserve would be able to cut rates several times this year, a key part of the bull case for the equity market.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 524.63 points, or 1.35%, to close at 38,272.75 in its worst session since March 2023 on a percentage basis. At its lows, the 30-stock index sunk 757.52 points, or 1.95%. The S&P 500 slid 1.37% to close at 4,953.17, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 1.8% to settle at 15,655.60.

The Russell 2000 also suffered, tumbling nearly 4% for its worst session since June 2022.

The consumer price index rose 0.3% in January from December. CPI was up 3.1% on an annual basis. Economists polled by Dow Jones expected CPI to have increased by 0.2% month over month in January and 2.9% from a year earlier.

Core prices, which exclude volatile food and energy components, rose 0.4% month over month and 3.9% from a year ago. Core CPI was expected to have increased 0.3% in January and 3.7% from a year earlier, respectively.

"This may well come as an easy excuse to take some of the froth out of the top of this market that's been universally higher thus far this year," said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at B. Riley Financial. "The CPI was, as reported today, just a touch hotter than expectations and proof positive that we're not on a linear path, but we're on a path headed lower."

The 2-year Treasury yield jumped above 4.66%, and the 10-year yield topped 4.32% following the CPI data. Tech shares including Microsoft and Amazon, which have steered the market run to record highs as rates declined, led the losses in trading Tuesday. Microsoft and Amazon each lost more than 2%.

In corporate news, JetBlue Airways spiked almost 22% after activist investor Carl Icahn reported a nearly 10% stake in the airline. Toymaker Hasbro lost 1.4% after missing analyst expectations for the fourth quarter. Shares of Avis Budget Group slipped about 23% on the back of disappointing fourth-quarter revenue.

IPO activity could pick back up in 2024, according to UBS

IPO activity may have dwindled in the past two years, but UBS believes it's time for a change.

"Globally, withdrawals and postponements rose to 54% of total IPO volumes in 2023, significantly higher than the 16.5% average between 2014 and 2021," wrote UBS' Mark Haefele. "Higher company valuations, lower market volatility, the potential for rate cuts, and optimism about an economic soft landing have led to a pickup in interest from company management teams looking for an entry point."

A pickup in IPO activity would greatly boost the financial sector, including banks, investment firms and private equity funds.

Communication services saw more record inflows last week, Bank of America Securities says

Communication services stocks saw more record inflows last week, according to Bank of America Securities.

The S&P 500 sector, which includes mega-cap tech stocks such as Meta Platforms, posted the second-ever largest level of inflows last week, wrote Jill Carey Hall, equity and quant strategist at the firm, in a Monday note.

That's only behind the all-time high reached in the prior week, BofA noted. It's also the 15th week of inflows, the longest buying streak of any sector in recent history. The firm uses data going back to 2008.

Most recently, a surprise dividend from Meta spurred more buying in the sector. In the week ending Feb. 2, shares of the Facebook-parent company surged more than 20% after it announced its first-ever dividend.

Meanwhile, tech and financials led outflows last week, while healthcare stocks saw a sixth-straight week of inflows.

Much of the 'good news' has been priced into markets, UBS says

After the S&P 500 climbed above the 5,000 level last week, UBS has one key question for investors: where do we go from here?

"While the commentary above paints a rosy picture, it's important to remember that a lot of the good news is already priced into markets," Solita Marcelli, the firm's chief investment officer Americas for UBS Global Wealth Management, wrote in a Monday note.

The market's performance so far this year has been a reflection of a "thriving economy," she added, noting that artificial intelligence and buzz around obesity drugs has been a key part of the market's value creation. To sustain further upside, Marcelli noted that more good news on the economy and a strong labor market is needed, that the market has to see AI monetization trends pick up and that persistent inflation will not delay interest rate cuts.

In the current market environment, Marcelli said UBS prefers quality stocks with strong returns on invested capital, strong margins and low debt, she said, and that small-cap stocks are currently more attractive than over large caps.

Oil prices rise despite stubborn U.S. inflation

Oil futures rose Tuesday despite stubborn inflation in the U.S. that dragged the stock market lower.

The West Texas Intermediate contract for March gained 95 cents, or 1.24%, to settle at $77.87 a barrel. The Brent contract for April settled at $82.77 a barrel, up 77 cents or 0.94%.

WTI has struggled to break out of a range of about $68 to $78 a barrel amid uncertainty over war in the Middle East and an unclear supply and demand outlook for the year.

WTI and Brent are up about 8.68% and 7.44%, respectively, for the year, however.

VIX Volatility Index gaps to 3-month high and tops 200-day moving average

The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) spiked up to 16.50 in late afternoon trading Tuesday, its highest since Nov. 2, 2023, above the 200-day moving average of 15.08 and far above the session low of 13.43.

The VIX had long ago traded above the 50-day moving average of 13.18.

Tuesday’s sell-off puts Dow and S&P 500 on track for worst day in nearly a year

The major averages were suffering keenly on Tuesday – and it's shaping up to be a notably bad session for the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500.

The 30-stock Dow, now off by more than 700 points and down 1.9%, is pacing for its worst day since Feb. 21, 2023. On that day, the blue-chip index lost 2.06%.

The S&P 500 is also tracking for its worst session since Feb. 21, 2023, off by 1.9%. On that difficult day last February, the broad market index shed 2%.

The Nasdaq Composite, down 2.3%, is now tracking for its worst day since Oct. 25, 2023. Back then, it fell 2.43%.

The S&P 500 could take a "healthy breather," RBC Wealth Management says

The S&P 500 could be in store for a slight slowdown after finding more momentum in February, according to RBC Wealth Management.

"Although we expect the S&P [500] to take a healthy breather after accelerating again in February, our expectation is that this weakness will result in a sideways, choppy trading range rather than a major intermediate-term correction," RBC technical strategist Robert Sluymer wrote in a Monday note.

The benchmark index is riding a five-week winning streak alongside the Nasdaq Composite and Dow Jones Industrial Average. Stocks are lower in Tuesday trading following a hotter-than-expected January inflation report.

The S&P 500 selloff is broad-based

On the other hand, health care saw the smallest drop with a slide of 1.2%. Losses for the sector were mitigated by rallies of more than 2% in Incyte and McKesson.

Watch this key level on the 10-year, strategist says

The 10-year Treasury note yield shot up more than 10 basis points following the release of hotter-than-expected inflation data for January. The benchmark rate also hit its highest level in more than two months and was last at around 4.28%.

Going forward the next key level for the 10-year will be around 4.35% to 4.36%, according to Gregory Faranello of AmeriVet Securities.

"If we start breaking through that level, then I think it gets a little interesting," the firm's head of U.S. rates strategy told CNBC. "You could get some fast money accounts that try and lean into it a little bit and test people."

Faranello also noted 4.35% was a "key level" before the 10-year broke out to its 2023 highs above 5%.

CPI data is a 'step back' on inflation, market strategist says

Tuesday's stronger-than-expected consumer prices data is a step in the wrong direction in the fight against inflation, according to David Russell, global head of market strategy at TradeStation.

"We've made two steps forward in the fight against inflation, and now we take one step back," he said.

While the data can thwart optimism around a cut to interest rates at the May Federal Reserve policy meeting, he noted there's "noise" in categories like auto insurance and rent within the consumer price index.

"It gives investors reason to pause following the recent strong rally in stocks," Russell said. "But the damage could be limited given the potential for revisions."

CPI print puts the 'final nail in the coffin' for March rate cut, strategist says

A hotter-than-expected inflation print is "not entirely unusual" for January, but it does move out expectations of a rate cut from the Federal Reserve, according to Sonu Varghese, global macro strategist at Carson Group.

"CPI was hotter than expected, but this is not entirely unusual for January given seasonal adjustments, and something we saw the past two Januarys," Varghese wrote. "That said, this probably puts a final nail in the coffin for a March rate cut, and even makes May less likely."

Markets are currently pricing in an 8.5% chance of a quarter percentage point cut in March, down from 16% the prior day, according to the CME FedWatch Tool. In May, the likelihood of a quarter point cut dropped 35% from 52% previously.

‘We don’t focus on one-month data,’ says White House press secretary on CPI

The consumer price index reading for January came in hotter than expected, but the longer-term trend of cooling inflation is what consumers should be focusing on, according to White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.

In January, the CPI grew 0.3% from the prior month and advanced 3.1% from a year earlier. Shelter prices were up 0.6% on the month, driving an increase in headline inflation.

"We know that rental inflation has slowed, but it takes a while to show up in CPI," Jean-Pierre said at a press conference on Tuesday morning. "Look at the trend. We see how the economy is moving. We don't focus on one month data, and so I think that's what's important here."

"But we're also going to continue to do the work to lower costs," she added.

January's hot inflation print doesn't mean inflation is resurging, portfolio manager says

January's hotter-than-expected inflation print sent stocks tumbling on Tuesday morning, but Globalt Investments' Thomas Martin believes that the selloff has been a "knee-jerk reaction" that ultimately won't change the market's direction.

"You're getting a little correction here," the portfolio manager told CNBC. "[The CPI print] is a little bit worrisome, but I don't think it changes the general direction that inflation is cooling."

He added: "I don't think this print shows that you're having a resurgence in inflation. I think it just shows that things don't move in a straight line."

Almost 9 in 10 NYSE stocks fall Tuesday in broad market retreat

More than 88% of the stocks on the New York Stock Exchange and roughly 75% of those on the Nasdaq Stock Market are declining in mid-afternoon trading Tuesday.

Measured by the number of shares traded, a scant 7.4% of total NYSE volume has traded higher, while 92% has fallen in price. (The balance is unchanged). Things are slightly better on the Nasdaq, where more than 22% of total volume has advanced in price Tuesday.

Selling wasn't torrential. Composite volume after 1:30 p.m. ET was 55% of the past 30 days' average on the NYSE and 65% on Nasdaq.

But, in a reflection of just how much momentum there has been in the stock rally that began in late October, new 52-week highs on the NYSE are still outnumbering new lows today, 79 to 40. Over on the Nasdaq, new highs trail new lows, 106 to 117.

Meanwhile, the S&P 500 is still up 4% year to date, further underscoring the rocky period for small-caps.

Odds of a rate cut in May get marked down to improbable after January inflation report

The CME FedWatch Tool shows that a May rate cut by the Federal Reserve is largely off the table, at least according to the latest 30-day fed funds futures pricing data following the release early Tuesday of January's stronger-than-forecast consumer price index numbers.

The probability of a May rate cut slumped to 36.6%, down from 52.2% on Monday, while the probability of the Federal Reserve holding rates steady has now risen to 60.8%, up from 39.3% yesterday, according to the CME calculator.

On the other hand, the probability of a rate cut in June now stands at 78.6%, down from 92.2% on Monday, while the chances of the Fed holding rates steady when summer officially begins are around 21.4% on Tuesday, against just 7.8% yesterday.

This week's inflation data will be key to sustaining market rally, UBS says

The pressure is on for this week's economic data releases to deliver some good news, according to UBS.

A strong earnings season has propelled a market rally so far in 2024, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average cinching another record close on Monday afternoon. UBS' Mark Haefel believes the rally has so far been "well supported by healthy economic fundamentals and profit growth," but there's still no guarantee that it will last.

"Inflation data this week could help determine whether market confidence in the health of the US economy should mount further," he wrote. "We will be looking for further evidence of slowing US inflation and resilient economic growth before concluding markets should price in a 'Goldilocks' scenario rather than a soft landing."

Traders will also keep a close eye on January's retail sales data — set for release on Thursday morning — to track the strength of the U.S. consumer.

"The S&P 500 is now trading close to the 5,000 level where we would expect it to end the year in the event of a soft landing. To reach our upside outcome of 5,300 by the end of 2024, we would need to see further positive signs on inflation, Fed policy, and growth, including from data and earnings releases this week," Haefele added.

Small-cap benchmark Russell 2000 pops for a 3rd straight day

The Russell 2000 index just wrapped up its third consecutive winning session.
