📈📊Market Update💵📉

Quick read on US CPI from Bloomberg!

We’re keeping the commentary short and sweet this week… but have some great podcasts and links to check out below!

US equities fell on Wednesday ahead of today’s July consumer price index report.

Technology (-1.51%) and communication services (-1.24%) lagged the broader market indices, while energy (+1.22%) and real estate (+0.20%) outperformed.

The Nasdaq lost 1.17%, while the "FAAMG" stocks dropped:

The 30-year and 10-year Treasury yields finished at 4.176% and 4.009% respectively, while the 2-year yield ended at 4.810%.

* If you read anything related to stocks this week, I highly recommend Chris Bloomstran’s tweet thread on Berkshires most recent report:

What is everyone thinking about?

* US credit card debt just hit $1 trillion, a big flashy number, but entirely consistent with long term trends. This is not a sign that the US consumer is tapped out.

* US retail money market fund balances hit their own record recently, at $1.5 billion. This is a significant change from prior 40-year trends and bodes poorly for smaller US banks.

* US bank stocks have rallied by +1 standard deviation versus their long run track record. The easy money has been made.
