New York and Conroe, December 12 – The TGH 25 Stock Index fell 2.6% during the past week in reaction to the rise in the Producer Price Index, which tracked wholesale prices during the month of November and rose 0.9%.
Since the entire purpose of the TGH 25 Stock Index is to measure the true condition of the United States economy, one would expect that the index would be less volatile than the other stock indices which the liberal news media tends to highlight. The market continued to react to political occurrences.
United Health Group, Inc. (UNH), showed the strongest advance among the stocks in the TGH 25 Stock Index during the past week.
Kelli Ann Cox, Publisher of The Golden Hammer, said about last week’s trading, “Ugh. The market reacted very negatively to producer prices, which will likely result in higher inflation at the consumer level. Investors fear more interest rate hikes from the Federal Reserve.”
The TGH 25 Stock Index as of 12:01 a.m., Monday, December 12, 2022, is:
129.90 (Down 3.41 from the previous week.)
