Energy stocks are surging alongside broader equities and other risk assets, as October CPI rose less than expected, at +0.4% vs estimates of +0.6%, and core rose 0.3% vs estimates of +0.5%, giving the market a signal that inflation may have peaked. The read-through for markets is the Fed’s rate tightening program is working, and consumer prices may begin to decline. The 10-year Treasury yield fell over 5%, and dropped below the key 4%-mark, currently around 3.93% (as of 9:00 AM ET).
Oil prices were initially lower overnight on China demand concerns and a stronger dollar, though those losses quickly evaporated after the 8:30 AM ET inflation report. Oil prices are now higher by nearly 1% as traders reallocate capital into a variety of risk assets.
Natural gas futures are also higher, trading up 3% around $6.03. Weekly inventory data due out later this morning expects a build of 84 bcf versus the 5-year average of +20 bcf.
