Dow drops by more than 500 points after a surprisingly bad inflation report
CNN
—
US stocks fell sharply Wednesday morning after inflation data for March came in higher than expected.
The blue-chip Dow was lower by 519 points, or 1.3%. The S&P 500 lost 1.1% and the Nasdaq Composite fell by 1%.
Investors worry this will push back the Fed’s timeline for the rate cuts it has been hinting would come this year.
The 10-year Treasury yield, a benchmark for mortgages and loans, soared higher on the news, hovering near 4.5%.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
