Plus, what we want to hear about from Tesla and Alphabet during their earnings calls this week. On this week’s episode of The Morning Filter, David Sekera and Susan Dziubinski unpack the latest inflation numbers and debate whether the numbers will influence the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision later this month. They also discuss which company earnings reports matter this week (hint: Tesla TSLA and Alphabet GOOGL top the list) and which stocks look attractive after reporting last week. They cover key takeaways from bank earnings, fair value estimate changes for Nvidia NVDA and Advanced Micro Devices AMD, and what Morningstar thinks of the possible breakup at Kraft Heinz KHC, too. Dave’s stock picks this week are a trio of names that’ve outperformed the market during the past year yet still look undervalued today.
