IVV is trading at $772.77 (-1.12%) as hotter-than-forecast September CPI revived expectations of another Fed rate increase.

  • September CPI’s annual headline rate was 3.7% and its core rate was 2.6%, both above forecasts.
  • Treasury yields rose after the report, pressuring rate-sensitive growth and technology shares; semiconductor weakness added to market pressure.
  • Bank earnings also contributed to volatility, but inflation and rate concerns best explain the broad S&P 500 decline.
