The market slid lower Tuesday morning as traders considered the latest inflation data — and more in Tuesday’s stock market recap.
The January Consumer Price Index report revealed that inflation grew 6.4% year over year versus the 6.2% expected, just slightly lower than the previous figure of 6.5%.
The year-over-year CPI excluding food and energy also came in over estimates at 5.6% versus the 5.5% expected.
This is a huge blow to the market, and has investors doubting that we’re improving as much as we thought.
With retail sales data on Wednesday and the Producer Price Index report on Thursday, we’ll get the full picture on inflation and how it’s affecting consumers by the end of the week.
In this morning’s stock market recap video, I’ll discuss whether today’s CPI report will impress the Federal Reserve or sink stocks… an update on the bond market and what to expect next… whether the U.S. stock market is ready to sink or soar… which stocks I’m 100% bullish on right now… which stocks I believe will fall further… plus which ETFs I’m buying and which ones are dead in the water.

P.S. What’s Causing One Bullish Trader to Turn Bearish
Many investors don’t realize this but…
This market is incredibly fragile.
More things are going wrong than are going right, and investors are about to be blindsided when massive amounts of cash start to flood out of their favorite stocks.
While this could spell disaster for anyone holding those stocks, investors who realize where that cash is going and how to take advantage stand to profit.
And that’s exactly what New Money Crew’s Lance Ippolito is about to reveal during his special live event at 1 p.m. ET today, Feb. 14 — at no cost!
