A fresh unexpected surge in inflation blindsided markets, shattering hopes for imminent Fed rate cuts and sending stocks down across the board. In March 2024, the annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation rate surged to 3.5%, up from February&#8217;s 3.2%, surpassing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/24/04/38181302/inflation-rises-more-than-expected-to-3-5-in-march-derails-june-rate-cut-hopes">expectations set at 3.4%. </a>
Adding to concerns, core inflation, which excludes energy and food, also exceeded expectations, reaching 3.8% compared to the anticipated 3.7%, dismissing any justifications solely attributed to higher gasoline price pressures. 
Consequently, investors sharply revised down their expectations for Fed rate cuts, now anticipating the commencement of any easing policy no earlier than September, with less than two rate cuts expected by year-end.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What&#8217;s Hot/Cold In The CPI Basket?</h3>
Expenditure categories witnessing the highest month-over-month seasonally adjusted price increase in March were: 
<ul>
<li>Motor vehicle insurance: +2.6%</li>
<li>Motor vehicle maintenance and repair: +1.7%</li>
<li>Gasoline (all types): +1.7%</li>
<li>Hospital services: +1%</li>
<li>Meats, poultry, fish, and eggs: +0.9%</li>
</ul>
Those showing the lowest monthly inflation were: 
<ul>
<li>Fuel oil: down 1.3%</li>
<li>Used cars and trucks: down 1.1%</li>
<li>Cereals and bakery products: down 0.9%</li>
<li>Other food at home: down 0.5%</li>
<li>Airline fares: down 0.4%</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wednesday&#8217;s Sector Performance </h3>
By midday trading in New York, losses were broad-based within indices. 
<ul>
<li>454 out of S&amp;P 500 stocks traded in the red</li>
<li>93 Nasdaq 100 stocks were negative</li>
<li>1,783 out of Russell 2000 stocks were negative</li>
<li>898 out of Russell 1000 stocks were negative</li>
</ul>
No sectors managed to evade daily losses, with rate-sensitive pockets of the markets, such as real estate, feeling the brunt more acutely than others.
Energy managed to hold almost steady, as rising gasoline prices improved the outlook for oil companies.

Real Estate, Regional Bank Stocks Tank, Energy Cushions The Blow: March Inflation Rates Shake Up Sectors

With interest rates remaining at their highest levels in over two decades, and with U.S. Treasury bonds comfortably exceeding a 4% yield, an increasing number of investors are turning their attention to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-buy-corporate-bonds">realm of corporate bonds. </a>
In this landscape, they seek not only promising yield opportunities but also the strategic advantage of diversifying away from equity investments.
The Financial Times recently reported that inflows into corporate bond funds have surged to $22.8 billion in 2024, marking the first positive start to a year since 2019. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Corporate Bonds: Investment Grade Vs. High Yield</h3>
Corporate bonds come in two main types: investment-grade and high-yield. Investment-grade bonds are issued by financially stable companies, while high-yield (or speculative grade) bonds come from riskier firms but offer higher returns.
Rating agencies like S&amp;P, Fitch and Moody&#8217;s determine which category a bond falls into based on the issuer&#8217;s ability to repay debts. Ratings range from AAA (very safe) to D (in default).
For example, companies like Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Amazon Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Eli Lilly Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) and Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) are rated as investment grade. 
Conversely, firms like AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMC#NYSE">AMC</a>), Office Property Income Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OPI#NYSE">OPI</a>) and Navient Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NAVI#NASDAQ">NAVI</a>) belong to the speculative-grade world.

The cutoff between investment-grade and high-yield is at the BB+ rating. Anything below BB+ is considered high yield, while BBB- or higher is investment-grade.
In general, the riskier the bond, the higher the potential return. Investment-grade bonds tend to offer lower yields because they are safer bets, with stronger financial health and better chances of repayment.
However, even within the realm of investment-grade bonds, there are opportunities to find attractive yields from companies with solid fundamentals. 
This allows investors to earn better returns without taking on excessive risk, compared to investing solely in ultra-safe U.S. Treasuries.
