Tech sell-off pushes Nasdaq to steepest drop since June 2020 (CNBC)

E-commerce and cloud stocks led the decline in technology, which was hit particularly hard after the Federal Reserve raised its benchmark interest rate.

However, the prospects of continued rate increases led to negative sentiment on Thursday, sending stocks down across the board. Each of them is down more than 45% year to date, and their slumps deepened Thursday. Less than halfway through the second quarter, the Nasdaq is now down 21% for the year.

Dow plunges more than 1000 points as fears about economy intensify (The Washington Post)

Stocks plunged Thursday — with the Dow Jones industrial average dropping more than 1,000 points — as investors fretted anew over big-picture economic ...

The Labor Department is set to release a jobs report Friday that investors hope will show slower hiring and wage growth. The Fed’s interest rate hike Wednesday — the second of seven that are forecast for 2022 — could make borrowing more expensive for corporations and households. Domestic markets have also thrown a wrench in the plans. That is pulling the economy in different directions, with inflation spiking and growth slowing, but hiring remaining robust. The Dow finished the day with a 3.1-percent slide to finish at 32,997, down from its January high of 36,800. U.S. gas prices have jumped since the conflict began. The wild midweek swings, experts said, signified the challenges facing the economy as it attempts to emerge from the coronavirus pandemic. The infusion marked significant validation of the billionaire’s pursuit of the social media platform and raised the likelihood of the deal going through. That led to a huge, but fleeting, stock market rally, with the Dow Jones closing up 932 points, or 2.8 percent. If the economy cools too quickly, it could fall into a recession, generally defined as two consecutive quarters of decline. “Thursday’s stock sell-off suggests that Wednesday’s … market action was a relief rally,” said Zach Stein, chief investment officer at asset management firm Carbon Collective. “We are still not out of the woods yet, as there is still too much uncertainty over how the Federal Reserve’s actions will tame inflation without causing a recession. The tech-heavy Nasdaq was hit particularly hard, shedding 5 percent.

When in reality, the Fed is going to do what it has to do to get inflation down,” said Michael Reynolds, vice president of investment strategy at Glenmede, by phone. U.S. productivity fell at a 7.5% annual rate in the first quarter, the biggest drop since 1947. Unit-labor costs jumped at an 11.6% annual pace in the first quarter. “It’s conceivable the S&P 500 needs to establish a bottom in this 3,850 to 4,000 range,” said John Lynch, chief investment officer for Comerica Wealth Management, in emailed comments. U.S. Treasury yields jumped Thursday, with the rate on the 10-year note TMUBMUSD10Y, 3.068%rise to 3.066%, its highest since Nov. 2018. Engelke attributed the sharp selloff to fears that Powell might have been too dovish on the short-term pace of rate hikes over the next few months. -14.91%reported a loss in the first quarterand announced the acquisition of Deliver Inc. in a deal valued at $2.1 billion. “We are still not out of the woods yet, as there is still too much uncertainty over how the Federal Reserve’s actions will tame inflation without causing a recession,” said Zach Stein, chief investment officer at the Carbon Collective, an investment advisor based in Berkeley, Calif., in emailed comments. “The fear is the Fed is falling behind on inflation pressures, and will be more draconian in the future.” Signs of panic selling on Wall Street set in Thursday, a day after a rally was sparked when Fed Chairman Jerome said the central bank wasn’t likely to hike its benchmark interest rate by 75 basis points at its next meeting. - The S&P 500SPX,dropped 153.30 points, or 3.6%, to finish at 4,146.87. - The Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA,skidded 1,063.09 points, or 3.1%, ending at 32,997.97, its worst daily percentage drop since Oct. 28, 2020, according to Dow Jones Market Data.

Shopify fell more than 17 percent after missing estimates on the top and bottom lines. I don’t think that is going to be tightening so much so that we’re going slow down the economy. The Treasury market also saw a dramatic reversal of Wednesday’s rally. ... But having the kind of day we had yesterday and then seeing it 100 percent reversed within half a day is just truly extraordinary,” said Randy Frederick, managing director of trading and derivatives at the Schwab Center for Financial Research. “Higher equity valuations are incompatible with that desire, so unless supply chains heal rapidly or workers flood back into the labor force, any equity rallies are likely on borrowed time as Fed messaging becomes more hawkish once again.” So we are going to be tightening a bit. The 10-year Treasury yield, which moves opposite of price, surged back above 3 percent on Thursday and hit its highest level since 2018. The Nasdaq Composite jumped 3.19 percent. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 1,120 points, or 3.3 percent. Salesforce tumbled 6.3 percent. Microsoft dropped 4.7 percent. The moves come after a major rally for stocks on Wednesday. The Dow surged 932 points, or 2.81 percent, and the S&P 500 gained 2.99 percent for their biggest gains since 2020.

Powell added that with record demand for labor, 1.7 million jobs added in 2022 so far and steady consumer spending, the U.S. economy was well equipped to handle the headwinds. “For what it’s worth, we believe the risk of recession is elevated and should not be dismissed. “When the Fed raises rates quickly it is dangerous to the stock market and today we are seeing an example of that,” he continued. Even so, there are growing concerns among policymakers and economists about whether the Fed will be able to do so amid several threats to the U.S. economy. Fed rate hike cycles often take a toll on the stock market as companies brace for higher borrowing costs and slower consumer spending.
