All three indexes were on a decline all morning, the Dow especially down over 300 points. Then, at 12:30, all three started climbing again, which was probably the time the PPI data was released which showed a substantial decline from April which, combined with an increase in unemployment claims, increased the odds of rate cuts, which shot tech back into the black again. The Dow also recovered dramatically but still ended the day in the red given concerns that the economy may be slowing too quickly. The market wants inflation down but not too much and not too quickly.  Tesla stockholders enthusiastically approved a $56B pay package for Elon Musk but it still has to get by the courts. Volume was 10.14 billion vs a 12.5 billion average.
