Stocks fall sharply as hot CPI report sparks fears of more Fed rate hikes

Stocks dropped significantly, led by the technology sector, after a higher-than-expected CPI report raised concerns about additional Federal Reserve interest rate hikes to control inflation. The S&P 500 fell over 1%, the Nasdaq nearly 2%, and the Russell 2000 small-cap index entered correction territory. Investors moved toward safer sectors like healthcare and consumer defensives, while bond yields declined, helping to limit overall market losses. This shift reflects growing caution amid inflation worries and potential tighter monetary policy ahead.
