If you think the worst is over for inflation, you're about to be sorely mistaken.
It’s peak earnings season, and investors could be forgiven for wanting an escape hatch. Corporate America is delivering solid results, but it’s not helping stocks. Last night, chip maker Intel’s quarterly results blew past Wall Street estimates.

<body><p>STORY: U.S. stocks ended mixed on Friday, with the Dow gaining just under half a percent, the S&P 500 virtually flat and the tech-heavy Nasdaq sliding nearly two-thirds of a percent.</p><p>The S&P 500 technology index underperformed the broader market as chip stocks fell, with Intel dropping nearly 8% despite forecasting quarterly profit and revenue above Wall Street estimates.</p><p>Enthusiasm for the AI trade weakened after Alphabet's announcement earlier this week of a plan to hike capital spending even as it burns cash.</p><p>Richard Reyle, chief investment officer at Questar Capital Partners, said that as a result investors are rotating into what he called "safer parts of the market."</p><p>"Pharmaceuticals have been flying, and that's been, I think, where we see the rotation of the market right now. [FLASH] You look at the iShares, pharmaceutical fund, it's big components that are J&J and Eli Lilly, they're at all-time highs. And they're still relatively not super expensive stocks. So I think that's a place that can be bought and held. And of course, energy. Exxon's going to announce earnings next week. I bet they're going to be a blockbuster and they're going to continue to be because they make money at $60 a barrel. At $100 a barrel, forget about it. They do very well."</p><p>The S&P 500 real estate sector also outperformed during the session. Its leading gainer was Digital Realty Trust, which rallied 11% after it raised its full-year forecast for funds from operations.</p><p>Among other gainers, shares of SLB climbed 11% after the oilfield services firm beat expectations for second-quarter profit.</p><p>Investors now turn their attention to quarterly results next week from Magnificent 7 megacaps Microsoft, Amazon, Meta and Apple.</p></body>
