Inflation will represent a key theme in the coming week, with a key consumer price report set to hit the market. This could lead to volatility in exchange traded funds tied to inflation.
Meanwhile, some key earnings in the communications sector and electric vehicle market also have investors tuned in. Elsewhere, U.S. Treasuries continue to be a crucial topic of discussion with yields driving higher lately.
Inflation ETFs
Last week, the Federal Reserve hiked rates by another 75 basis points in a further effort to combat rising prices. Next week, markets will digest new inflation data in the for of the consumer price index.
The CPI report is due out on Thursday. With new inflation data set to be delivered, related inflation-related ETFs can see potential swings.

ETFs attached to Disney

Also delivering earnings is the electric vehicle maker Lucid Group Inc. (LCID). LCID will announce its third quarter earnings results on Tuesday.
In its report, LCID is expected to lose $0.30 per share and report revenue of about $200M. In its last earnings report, released in August, the company came up short in its top-line figure and lowered its full-year production guidance. That release sent the stock tumbling about 10%.

U.S. Treasury ETFs
Treasuries will remain a focal point next week, with yields recently climbing to decade highs and the yield curve inverting to new decades-long low.
Last week, the U.S. 2-year Treasury yield (US2Y) climbed 23 basis points to 4.66% and the U.S. 10 Year Treasury yield (US10Y) tracked higher by 15 basis points to 4.16%. At the same time the yield curve between the 2Y and 10Y inverted at one point this week to -59 basis points, its lowest level since June of 2000.
As yields remain volatile, funds that have price action attached to the bond market may notice continued swings.
