Good morning!
Futures are indicating an up opening, reversing higher after a cooler-than-expected CPI print. the CPI came in at 4.9%, slightly lower than the 5% estimates. The VIX is indicated below 16.50. It’s worth keeping an eye on the VIX as now that the FOMC and CPI are out of the way the the debt ceiling negotiations will garner headlines. As mentioned, the options market isn’t showing much concern yet on that front. Therefore, with most economic news and most earnings now in the past, it’s really the banks driving market vol. If the market finds some stability we could see some of the lowest IV in years.
Disney, TradeDesk, Beyond Meat and Robinhood highlight reports after the close.
