5 ETF Winners in Wednesday's Session as Yields Retreat
Read MoreHide Full Article
Wall Street ended in green at the close of Wednesday’s trading session after yields pulled back from their multi-year highs. The Dow Jones Industrial Average broke a three-day losing streak, rising 0.4%, while the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite Index gained 0.8% and 1.3%, respectively.
While many corners of the space have shown strength, we have highlighted five best-performing ETFs of the day that were the biggest beneficiaries of the change in trend. These include GraniteShares 1.75x Long TSLA Daily ETF (TSLR) , Direxion Daily Consumer Discretionary Bull 3X Shares (WANT) , BMO REX MicroSectors FANG+ Index 3X Leveraged ETN (FNGU) , Defiance Pure Electric Vehicle ETF and Direxion Daily Homebuilders & Supplies Bull 3X Shares (NAIL) .
The 10-year Treasury yields slipped from highs last seen in 2007 after private payroll data pointed to a weakening labor market. Private payrolls grew 89,000 in September, well below the Dow Jones estimate of 160,000 and down from the revised reading of 180,000 in August. This could revive bets that the Fed can refrain from further interest rate increases. This drove technology stocks higher (read: Inverse Treasury ETFs Surge as Yields Rise).
Additionally, traders have trimmed wagers on a rate increase this year after the latest data suggest that demand in several industries is slowing. A report from the Institute for Supply Management showed the services sector pulled back modestly last month to the lowest level this year.
Notably, higher interest rates have increased fears of a recession and have pushed mortgage rates near 8%. Consequently, mortgage demand fell to its lowest levels since 1996.
