Commodity related stocks are leading to the downside here, as investors trample over each other for the exits. The dollar (UUP) and treasuries (TLT) are both up 0.9% and 1.4%, respectively. People are interested in deflationary trades, yet again. Hence, the old “Hugh Hendry trade” is back on.
The biggest laggards amongst large cap stocks are ARMH (-9%), CLF (-6.5%), NTAP (-6.5%), NVDA (-6%), SLW (-6%), NOV (-6%), ASML (-5.7%) and BTU (-5.5%)
