Hot Inflation Data, Nvidia Reaches Amazon’s Market Cap, TV Ratings Record 2/13/24

Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber started the show by breaking down the hotter-than-expected inflation data, with CPI rising 0.3% in January. The morning data sent stocks lower and yields spiking; the Dow dropped 500 points during the first hour of trading. The anchors then shifted to a look at some high-flying tech names, as Nvidia overtook Amazon in market value, making the tech giant America’s 4th largest company. Also in the mix: the desk also mentioned the viewership numbers from Super Bowl 58. More than 123 million Americans tuned into the game, making it the most-watched television show ever.
