Dividend Cafe: Market Commentary and Economic Updates - July 11th
In this episode of Dividend Cafe, Brian Szytel provides an insightful overview of the market activities on Thursday, July 11th. Key highlights include a mixed market performance with the Dow closing up by 32 points, while technology-heavy indices like the S&P and NASDAQ experienced declines. The CPI data released showed cooler than expected inflation, indicating positive trends for the economy and aligned with the Federal Reserve's goals. Bond yields have also rallied, reflecting these changes. Additionally, initial jobless claims were slightly better than anticipated. Szytel explains the day's performance, attributing the technology sell-off to a 'buy the rumor, sell the news' reaction. He also provides a brief outlook for the upcoming PPI index release. The episode concludes with a reminder about the weekly Dividend Cafe longer format soon to be available.
