What’s on Today’s Radar
As major indices face consecutive losses, we’ve analyzed what the market is reacting to, and what signals to watch for in the coming sessions.
Big Economic Data Ahead: Tomorrow promises pivotal data releases, highlighted on CNBC’s ‘Squawk Box.’ Tune in Friday at 8:30 a.m. ET as Becky Quick and Joe Kernen discuss expected figures, including the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index, Consumer Sentiment, Consumer Spending, and Personal Income numbers.
As inflation intricacies unfold, the 10-year Treasury yield sits at 4.36% while the two-year yield hovers at 4.00%. Understanding these figures is crucial for predicting market movements, especially with the implications they have on future interest rates.
Watch the Yield Curve: The current landscape shows yields across various Treasury securities with significant variance. For instance, the iShares 0-5 Year High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (SHYG) leads with a commendable dividend yield of 7.04%, making it an attractive asset to include in a diversified portfolio.
Investment Ideas to Consider
Used Car Market: In light of new tariffs on vehicles, used car stocks are gaining traction. Carvana has seen a resurgence, climbing 10% this week despite being 15% off its Dec. 2022 high. This sector might be worth monitoring as consumer preferences shift.
CoreWeave IPO: Keep a close eye on CoreWeave as its IPO hits the market tomorrow. Analysts, including CNBC "Halftime Report" contributor Josh Brown, express cautious optimism amid concerns about high debt and a complicated customer relationship with Nvidia. Initial public offerings can offer lucrative opportunities, but they also come with risks that demand thorough due diligence.
Meta Platforms Under Scrutiny: The tech giant is facing increasing scrutiny from EU regulators, causing its shares to linger 19% below the February peak. With a yearly gain of 22%, there may be potential for value investing in a well-known player with a resilient business model.
Analyst Favorites: Winners & Losers This Quarter
In tracking Wall Street’s top stock picks, we find that Spotify has surged 29%, bolstered by optimistic forecasts from Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan. On the flip side, Marvell Technology has seen a slump, down over 30% year-to-date. Understanding what drives these fluctuations can empower investors to make more informed decisions.
The Coffee Market and Inflation
Globally, coffee prices are experiencing a significant hike, with brands like Lavazza and Nestle expected to raise prices by 25%. The volatility in coffee markets influences major players like Starbucks, whose shares have dipped 14.6% in March. As coffee remains a staple commodity, staying informed about these trends is crucial for strategic investment.
Networking Opportunities Ahead
Mark your calendars for an exclusive networking event at the New York Stock Exchange, hosted by CNBC Pro LIVE on June 12.
