The stock market had its biggest rally in two years on Thursday due to lighter-than-expected inflation data. This boosted investors’ hopes that inflation has peaked and the Federal Reserve may slow down the pace of interest rate hikes.
Overall, S&P 500 grew 5.5% to 3,956, while NASDAQ jumped 7.4% to 11,114.
Tweet of the Day
Inflation fell to 0.4% last month vs. 0.9% year ago. Notice easy yoy comparisons thru next June. Imagine 0.4% each month until then. In mid July 2023 when CPI is released, inflation could be ~4.5%. This is good news for growth stocks — especially speculative ones. pic.twitter.com/lFdO8t0bST
