The Nasdaq ended sharply lower on Thursday, hit by losses in Nvidia, Apple and Tesla as investors went for smaller companies after softer-than-expected inflation data raised bets the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates in September. Stocks finished trading Thursday with the Dow Jones Industrial Average clinging to a small gain while the S&P 500 dropped and the Nasdaq plummeted. The US consumer price index fell 0.1 percent in June from May, against the Dow Jones estimates of a 0.1 percent increase. Further, the annual inflation in June was also reported at 3 percent against the street estimate of 3.1 percent. The monthly inflation rate dipped in June for the first time in more than four years, providing further support for the Federal Reserve to start lowering interest rates later this year. Optimism over lower rates sparked a shift into riskier parts of the market — as money shifted out of the long-favored safety trade of big tech. The Russell 2000 of smaller firms beat the Nasdaq 100 by 5.8 percentage points — the most since November 2020.

U.S. stocks rose to new milestones on Wednesday, with the S&P 500 finishing above 5,600 for the first time and the Nasdaq Composite securing its 27th record close of 2024. Helping to fuel some of the risk-on sentiment from investors was the sense that the Federal Reserve might be willing to cut interest rates multiple times through January to support the economy. Jerome Powell told Congress that the Fed doesn’t need inflation below 2% before cutting rates and that officials still have more work to do. He noted the labor market has cooled “pretty significantly.” U.S. inflation data due this week include the Consumer Price Index on Thursday and the Producer Price Index report on Friday. Asian equities rose on Thursday after a rally in the world’s largest tech stocks lifted global shares to new highs ahead of US inflation data due later Thursday.

Powell said elevated inflation is not the only risk the economy is facing, and the policymakers were paying closer attention to the cooling labor market. Powell on Tuesday expressed concern that holding interest rates too high for too long could jeopardize economic growth. Asia-Pacific markets were mixed on Wednesday, even as key US benchmarks rose following dovish comments from U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell overnight.
