The SPY Takes A Bath On PPI Print, What's Wall Street Saying?
Portfolio Pulse from AJ Fabino
The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) fell on Friday following the release of the latest Producer Price Index (PPI) data, which showed a 0.8% annualized increase, bouncing back from its revised 0.2% in June and exceeding the expected 0.7% hike. Economists suggest that the PPI report underscores the Federal Reserve's hesitance in claiming success in its inflation containment strategies. Despite July's acceleration, the PPI grew just 0.85% over the year, and business input costs have cooled off notably in July.
