Stocks Dip After Hotter-Than-Expected Inflation Data

Welcome back to need to know everyone. I'm alongside Hannah. Do a lot of cheers down here on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange as we start this Friday trading session, Del Monaco celebrating the opening at the oldest restaurant in New York City, a staple here in the financial district and Jet A I up there at the NASDAQ in Times Square. Take a look at how the markets open on this Friday. We do see a lot of red across the screen. Volatility ticking a little bit higher comes as a second inflation report. This one is more of a lean indicator. The produce producer price index did show prices rose a little bit more than had expected last month by 3/10 of a percent. Just to hear above what the consensus was. But the dow down about 2/10 of A percent. The S and P sheds 4/10 of A percent and the NASDAQ is off about 8/10 of a percent.
