The major indexes are mixed Thursday morning as the latest data pointed to cooling inflation.

The March Producer Price Index declined 0.5% month over month versus flat expectations. Core PPI, which excludes food and energy prices, decreased 0.1% month over month versus expectations of a 0.2% increase.

These numbers, which measure the prices paid by companies and producers, indicate that inflation is starting to cool.

Investors are still worried about the possibility of a recession, especially as the latest Federal Open Market Committee meeting minutes revealed the Fed is concerned about the recent banking crisis causing a mild recession later this year.

In this morning’s stock market recap video, I’ll discuss why the market was weak Wednesday… what Thursday’s PPI report is telling us… why the bond market is driving stocks right now… which ETFs I’m avoiding… why I’m being cautious with the Utilities and Health Care sectors… plus my top ETF and option pick for today’s choppy market action!

P.S. Bargains DO Exist in the Market

I love a good bargain, don’t you?

And little do people know… hefty bargains do exist in the stock market! You just have to know where to look.

The “pricing mismatch” I just discovered requires traders to disregard the share price and focus on the options…

And thanks to this mismatch, even a tiny 1% move in a stock could lead to gains as high as 31%… 41%… even 46% or more in a matter of days.

That’s why I’m going live at 1 p.m. ET today, April 13, to show this “pricing mismatch” in action and how to apply it to options trades. And as always, it doesn’t cost a thing to attend!
