RECAP
All S&P sectors closed down Tuesday after CPI data came in higher than expected, at 3.1% core inflation year over year for January.
The $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ fell 1.37% to just below the 5,000 mark. The $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$ fell 1.35%, and the $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ fell 1.80%.
Markets are pricing in a 78% probability that the Fed will deliver at least a quarter-point rate cut in June, according to the CME FedWatch Tool. They also see an 87.2% chance of at least three rate cuts by December. Meanwhile, March's once "priced-in" rate cut fell to just an 8.5% probability.
"The 'January effect,' where companies tend to raise prices at the turn of the year, was likely one driver of the stronger print, with companies continuing to push prices after another year of strong inflation," Josh Jamner, investment strategy analyst at ClearBridge Investments told MarketWatch. "Companies that expected prices to rise at a more muted pace in 2023 may have needed to 'catch up' and were able to do so given the continued strong pricing environment."

Even the core rate that strips out volatile items like food and energy rose by a stronger-than-expected 0.4% last month, while the annual rate of core inflation was unchanged at 3.9%.
The yield on the $U.S. 2-Year Treasury Notes Yield (US2Y.BD)$ soared 12.3 basis points to 4.59% from 4.467% on Monday. Yields move in the opposite direction to prices.
