Daily Morning Note – 11 November 2021
PHILLIP SUMMARY
US shares fell sharply on Wednesday after consumer inflation hit a 30-year high, and as investors headed for the exits after a streak of gains over the last few weeks.
While some analysts said a decline was to be expected, the inflation data loomed large. The US consumer price index (CPI) surged 6.2 per cent in the 12 months ended in October, a 30-year high coming amid rising oil, auto and housing prices, according to the Labor Department data.
The benchmark Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.7 per cent to finish the day at 36,079.94, and the broad-based S&P 500 fell 0.8 per cent to 4,646.71.
