What's Going On With Roblox Shares Today?

Roblox Corp. RBLX shares are trading lower by 5.19% to $36.24 Wednesday morning. Stocks across sectors are trading lower during Wednesday's trading session after CPI data showed worse-than-expected June inflation. A rise in inflation has caused concerns of a potential recession and more aggressive Federal Reserve policy.

The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 1.3% in June on a seasonally adjusted basis after rising 1.0% in May, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported today. The BLS says the increase was broad-based, with the indexes for gasoline, shelter, and food being the largest contributors.

The BLS says the all items index increased 9.1% for the 12 months ending June, the largest 12-month increase since the period ending November 1981. The energy index rose 41.6% over the last year, the largest 12-month increase since the period ending April 1980.
