Wall Street Stages Largest Jump Since 2020: ETF Winners
Read MoreHide Full Article
Wall Street showed a astounding rally following the lighter-than-expected inflation data, which fueled hopes that the Federal Reserve might slow down the pace of its interest-rate increases. In fact, the three major indices logged in the biggest one-day rally in two years.
While most of the ETFs gained with the market surge, we have highlighted five funds from different segments that gained in double digits. These are ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK - Free Report) , Amplify Online Retail ETF (IBUY - Free Report) , iShares U.S. Home Construction ETF (ITB - Free Report) , Sprott Junior Gold Miners ETF (SGDJ - Free Report) and Invesco WilderHill Clean Energy ETF (PBW - Free Report) .
Inflation in the United States moderated somewhat as the consumer price index rose 7.7% annually in October after rising 8.2% at the end of September, while the core consumer price index, which strips out volatile components such as food and energy prices, climbed 6.3% year over year, down from 6.6% in September. The data renewed optimism in the stock market about the Fed‘s possibility of slowing its pace of interest-rate increases in 2023 (read: 4 Sector ETFs to Win from October Inflation Data).
The central bank has lifted interest rates six times so far this year with four consecutive rate hikes of 75 bps. The rate hike brings the benchmark interest rate, the federal funds rate, to 3.75-4%, its highest level since 2008. The easing inflation data has sparked new hopes for a smaller hike at the next Fed meeting in December.
The S&P 500 rallied 5.5% — its biggest intraday gain since April 2020 — while the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 3.7% — the highest since May 2020. The technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index jumped a whopping 7.4% — its sharpest climb since emerging from the pandemic crash in March 2020.
Meanwhile, Treasury yields tumbled following the report, with the 10-year yields dropping below the 4% level and two-year yield showing the steepest decline since 2008.
