Wall Street indexes post record-high closes; Tesla and Micron rally

All three indexes zoomed straight up right out the gate and stayed there all day, posting strong 3-digit gains. All three indexes registered record highs, even the Dow this time with a jump of a huge 617 points. As I suggested yesterday, it seems that whatever the reports said vis-à-vis inflation was going to be taken as good news. Yesterday, PPI showing inflation cooling caused a rally and today CPI showing inflation getting hotter caused an even bigger rally.  

The consensus on both is the same – cooler inflation may be what the Fed wants but higher inflation is hurting the job market and therefore calling for long awaited rate cuts. Today, unemployment claims came in at a 4-year high so again there is a virtual certainty of a rate cut announcement next week with a chance it’ll even be ½ point. At 18.2 billion, volume was way above average which for the last 20 sessions is 16.1 billion.
