The article primarily concerns the anticipation of the U.S. financial markets for July inflation data, which will largely determine the direction of Wall Street and the path of interest rates ahead of the Federal Reserve's September meeting. The S&P 500 Index experienced a record-breaking rise of 5.75% over four consecutive days, supported by a rebound in technology and semiconductor stocks, and a decline in oil prices to below $80 per barrel. Estimates suggest that the annual inflation rate for the Consumer Price Index could rise to 3.4%, while the core index remains steady at 2.5%. This figure is significant amid ongoing division within the Federal Reserve, as markets price in a 60% probability of a rate hike in September, with the likelihood increasing if the data surpasses expectations. Additionally, markets are closely watching treasury yields and oil prices, as any new volatility could lead to higher yields and borrowing costs, thereby putting pressure on the stock market. Alongside inflation data, other indicators such as producer prices and retail sales will shed light on the health of economic spending and the sustainability of growth, with particular attention to the results of major technology companies to gauge the continued momentum in the artificial intelligence sector.
