Markets 'pricing out perfection' upon CPI-driven sell-off



January’s CPI data came out higher than expected Tuesday, sparking a major industry sell-off. SEI Chief capital Officer Jim Smigiel joins Yahoo financial Live to discuss what prompted the sharp downturn in shares.
Smigiel says the sell-off represents “the industry pricing out perfection”. Investors had previously hoped for the Federal Reserve to cut finance charge rates by March amid stabilizing economic data. However, Smigiel notes the hot CPI report showed “this is not going to be a linear path, this is going to be a bumpy road” to the Fed’s rate cuts.
Smigiel notes markets were “definitely overbought”, but this doesn’t necessarily signal “the start of a bad industry”. Rather, it indicates an “entrenchment” in overbought sectors.
