TODAY’S MOST VOLATILE STOCKS
TODAY’S TOP STORY
Briefly: Much like yours truly after walking up a single flight of stairs, stocks took a breather today. Higher treasury yields and a strong dollar drove the overall market lower. (NVIDIA excluded, naturally.)
So Basically: Volatility surged back into the market today. The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) spiked 9% after hitting nearly three-year lows last week, fueled by fresh upticks in Treasury bond yields.
So Then: The yield on the 30-year Treasury note, a crucial benchmark for mortgage rates nationwide, soared to 4.74%, rising more than 15 basis points over two sessions and nearing its highest close since May 2.
So What: All major U.S. equity indices and all eleven sectors traded in the red, on a day when the U.S. dollar effectively played its safe haven role. The Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF saw its strongest day in a month.
What Next: Investors fear that the Fed won’t cut interest rates until November, and likely won’t do so more than once this year, as suggested by current Fed futures pricing.
