Major stock market indexes finished lower again last week. The Nasdaq Composite Index performed the worst falling just under 1% while the Dow Jones Industrial Average finished only slightly lower. An as-expected headline CPI release Tuesday (along with a slightly higher-than-expected core CPI release) initially propelled stock prices higher with expectations of a June rate cut remaining mostly intact. That sentiment weakened Wednesday amidst growing uncertainty of the timing and extent of Fed rate cuts. Thursday’s higher-than-expected PPI release accentuated that uncertainty driving all 3 major stock indexes lower Thursday and Friday. 10-year Treasury rates, reflecting increased higher-rates-for-longer expectations, rose over 20bps with almost the entire increase coming from rising 10-year real rates. For the week, the S&P 500 Index decreased 0.1% to 5,117.09, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 0.7% to 15,973.17, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was practically unchanged at 38,714.77, the 10-year U.S. Treasury rate rose 23bp to 4.31% and the U.S. dollar (as measured by the ICE U.S. Dollar index – DXY) appreciated 0.7%.

An as-expected headline CPI release Tuesday (along with a slightly higher-than-expected core CPI release) initially propelled stock prices higher with expectations of a June rate cut remaining mostly intact. That sentiment weakened Wednesday amidst growing uncertainty of the timing and extent of Fed rate cuts. Thursday’s higher-than-expected PPI release accentuated that uncertainty driving all 3 major stock indexes lower Thursday and Friday. 10-year Treasury rates, reflecting increased higher-rates-for-longer expectations, rose over 20bps with almost the entire increase coming from rising 10-year real rates.

All 3 major stock indexes finished the week lower, pulling back from recent highs on no real news.

Powell’s testimony Wednesday and Thursday in which he stated the Fed may soon be in a position to cut rates helped push longer-term Treasury rates lower and stock indexes higher. Friday’s mixed payroll report, showing a larger-than-expected increase in jobs created but slower-than-expected wage growth and a higher-than-expected unemployment rate, ended up moving indexes lower to close the week lower.

Major stock market indexes finished lower again last week. The Nasdaq Composite Index performed the worst falling just under 1% while the Dow Jones Industrial Average finished only slightly lower. An as-expected headline CPI release Tuesday (along with a slightly higher-than-expected core CPI release) initially propelled stock prices higher with expectations of a June rate cut remaining mostly intact. That sentiment weakened Wednesday amidst growing uncertainty of the timing and extent of Fed rate cuts. Thursday’s higher-than-expected PPI release accentuated that uncertainty driving all 3 major stock indexes lower Thursday and Friday. 10-year Treasury rates, reflecting increased higher-rates-for-longer expectations, rose over 20bps with almost the entire increase coming from rising 10-year real rates. For the week, the S&P 500 Index decreased 0.1% to 5,117.09, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 0.7% to 15,973.17, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was practically unchanged at 38,714.77, the 10-year U.S. Treasury rate rose 23bp to 4.31% and the U.S. dollar (as measured by the ICE U.S. Dollar index – DXY) appreciated 0.7%.

Major stock market indexes finished lower again last week. The Nasdaq Composite Index performed the worst falling just under 1% while the Dow Jones Industrial Average finished only slightly lower. An as-expected headline CPI release Tuesday (along with a slightly higher-than-expected core CPI release) initially propelled stock prices higher with expectations of a June rate cut remaining mostly intact. That sentiment weakened Wednesday amidst growing uncertainty of the timing and extent of Fed rate cuts. Thursday’s higher-than-expected PPI release accentuated that uncertainty driving all 3 major stock indexes lower Thursday and Friday. 10-year Treasury rates, reflecting increased higher-rates-for-longer expectations, rose over 20bps with almost the entire increase coming from rising 10-year real rates. For the week, the S&P 500 Index decreased 0.1% to 5,117.09, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 0.7% to 15,973.17, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was practically unchanged at 38,714.77, the 10-year U.S. Treasury rate rose 23bp to 4.31% and the U.S. dollar (as measured by the ICE U.S. Dollar index – DXY) appreciated 0.7%.

All 3 major stock indexes finished the week lower, pulling back from recent highs on no real news. Uncertainty before Fed Chair Powell’s testimony before Congress Wednesday and Thursday and Friday’s payroll report reduced risk-on appetite, pushing all 3 indexes at least 1% lower with tech stocks (excluding Nvidia) bearing the brunt of the downturn and as a result, the Nasdaq Composite Index as well. Powell’s testimony Wednesday and Thursday in which he stated the Fed may soon be in a position to cut rates helped push longer-term Treasury rates lower and stock indexes higher. Friday’s mixed payroll report, showing a larger-than-expected increase in jobs created but slower-than-expected wage growth and a higher-than-expected unemployment rate, ended up moving indexes lower to close the week lower.

The week started on a down beat, with stock markets reacting to hawkish Powell comments Sunday and stronger-than-expected service sector growth. Stock indexes, however, moved higher the remainder of the week, predominantly propelled by strong tech stock performance despite markedly higher long-term Treasury rates. While rate cut expectations declined and Treasury rates rose, tech stocks (in particular Nvidia) rose to new highs, bolstered by growing “soft-landing” expectations. The S&P 500 Index closed above 5,000 for the first time. For the week, the S&P 500 Index rose 1.4% to 5,026.61, the Nasdaq Composite Index gained 2.3% to 15,990.66, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was almost unchanged at 38,671.30, the 10-year U.S. Treasury rate rose 16bp to 4.08% and the U.S. dollar (as measured by the ICE U.S. Dollar index – DXY) strengthened 0.2%.

Major stock indexes moved higher again last week with the Nasdaq Composite Index significantly outperforming the S&P 500 Index and, in particular, the Dow Jones Industrial Average. The week started on a down beat, with stock markets reacting to hawkish Powell comments Sunday and stronger-than-expected service sector growth. Stock indexes, however, moved higher the remainder of the week, predominantly propelled by strong tech stock performance despite markedly higher long-term Treasury rates. While rate cut expectations declined and Treasury rates rose, tech stocks (in particular Nvidia) rose to new highs, bolstered by growing “soft-landing” expectations. The S&P 500 Index closed above 5,000 for the first time. For the week, the S&P 500 Index rose 1.4% to 5,026.61, the Nasdaq Composite Index gained 2.3% to 15,990.66, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was almost unchanged at 38,671.30, the 10-year U.S. Treasury rate rose 16bp to 4.08% and the U.S. dollar (as measured by the ICE U.S. Dollar index – DXY) strengthened 0.2%.
