The Market Insights from Anupam Kumar

The belief of global economy reaching “peak inflation” was shattered last week when CPI report came in with above expectation numbers. On 13th Sep, Tuesday, Labor department released Consumer price index (CPI) report and it became the defining moment of last week’s market performance. The annual rate came down from July’s 8.5% to 8.3% but alas, it was higher than economists’ prediction of 8.1%.

Some of the major highlights of last week:

• Major U.S. indices suffered worst sell-off after June 2020, post inflation data numbers were made public.
• Wall Street market fell for the fourth time in five weeks.
• Technology-heavy Nasdaq dropped 5.5% and S&P 500 went down by 4.7% with Alphabet, Google parent company, and Meta hit new 52-week lows.
