The post-election rally in financials and small-caps also stumbled.Hurting the Trump bump on Tuesday was the surge in bond yields. The 10-year Treasury yield spiked aggressively, surging 13 basis points. The sharp rise comes a day ahead of October's consumer inflation report. Wall Street is eyeing for any upside price surprise, which could unwind interest rate cut outlooks.Economists expect a 2.5% year-over-year jump in Wednesday's CPI data, compared to a rise of 2.4% in the prior month."The inflation numbers might tick up a little this week as some areas like transportation, consumer durables, and rent have been harder to get under control. After steady progress, we might be leveling off, but the Fed has made progress toward their target," said Scott Helfstein, Global X head of investment strategy. "There is no reason to believe that one month of data will change the Fed strategy, and a 25 bp cut in December remains the base case."Still, the market indicates a 37.9% chance that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates steady next month. Trump's policies are expected to have a potentially inflationary impact, and the market is debating whether interest rates will remain higher for longer as the Fed is again forced to confront rising prices."Inflation is not tamed," Apollo's co-president Scott Kleinman told <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2024-11-12/apollo-s-scott-kleinman-says-inflation-is-not-tamed-video">Bloomberg TV</a>.

Traders will now be bracing for Israel's response to Iran, and whether this has the potential to disrupt oil flows, said Helima Croft, RBC Capital Markets head of global commodity strategy."Iran is producing at a five-year high," she told <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2024/10/01/heres-how-iranian-missile-strikes-could-impact-oil-prices.html">CNBC</a>. "We do need to think of a scenario where Iranian oil supply is at risk."As oil rallied, so did gold and the bond market, with investors piling into risk-off assets. On Tuesday, the yellow metal jumped more than 1%, and continues to hover near its recent all-time record."Military conflicts can quickly escalate into a scenario that causes markets to sell off dramatically, with safe haven assets such as gold and Treasuries seeing heavy inflows," said Quincy Krosby, Chief Global Strategist for LPL Financial.Here's where US indexes stood at the 4 pm closing bell on Tuesday:<ul><li><a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/s&amp;p_500?utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest%3Futm_source%3Dmarkets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">S&amp;P 500</a>: 5,708.75, down 0.9%</li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/dow_jones?utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest%3Futm_source%3Dmarkets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">Dow Jones industrial average</a>: 42,156.97, down 0.4% (173 points)</li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/nasdaq_composite?utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest%3Futm_source%3Dmarkets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">Nasdaq composite</a>: 17,910.36, down 1.5%</li></ul>On the economic data front, job openings in August increased more than expected unexpectedly to 8.04 million, surpassing consensus estimates of 7.6 million, according to the latest Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey."This noisy indicator is starting to suggest a stabilization of the job market as the Fed pivots," Bill Adams, Chief Economist for Comerica Bank, wrote. "Relatively few workers are being fired or laid off, and few are leaving jobs voluntarily for other opportunities, either."Investors can expect more labor data to come in this week, culminating in September's jobs report on Friday.

The <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/october-jobs-report-unemployment-rate-nonfarm-payroll-growth-federal-reserve-2024-11">US economy added 12,000 jobs in October,</a> well short of economist estimates of 106,000, representing the lowest job gains since December 2020. The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 4.1%.The weak jobs report reinforced the case for more interest rate cuts from the Fed."The Fed will likely cut rates in the remaining two meetings as economic conditions weakened," LPL chief economist Jeffrey Roach said.The jobs report's weakness was driven by disruptions from hurricanes Helene and Milton, which battered Florida and North Carolina last month.The ongoing strike of about 30,000 Boeing union members also weighed on the report.Here's where US indexes stood shortly after the 9:30 a.m. opening bell on Friday:<ul><li><a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/s&amp;p_500?utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest%3Futm_source%3Dmarkets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">S&amp;P 500</a>: 5,739.46, up 0.59% </li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/dow_jones?utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest%3Futm_source%3Dmarkets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">Dow Jones Industrial Average</a>: 41,955.92, up 0.46% (+192.46 points)</li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/index/nasdaq_composite?utm_source=markets&amp;utm_medium=ingest%3Futm_source%3Dmarkets&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_medium=ingest&amp;utm_source=markets">Nasdaq composite</a>: 18,208.88, up 0.63%</li></ul>Interest rates fell immediately following the weak data, with the 10-year US Treasury yield dropping to a low of 4.229% before rebounding slightly.The fact that the jobs report missed estimates but did not include a rise in the unemployment rate was encouraging, according to Bryon Anderson of Laffer Tengler Investments."The unemployment rate not increasing again is a good sign for the economy and breaks the Sahm rule everyone was panicking about a couple months ago. Hourly earnings increases are still increasing at a healthy pace so we still have confidence in the economy," Anderson,Investors were also digesting earnings results from mega-cap tech giants Amazon and Apple.
