Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq rise as Fed rate cut bets surge after inflation data
US stocks climbed on Wednesday amid increasing expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates at its next meeting, following the latest inflation data. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose nearly 0.5%, while the benchmark S&P 500 (^GSPC) gained 0.4%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) also climbed roughly 0.5%. Stocks roared on Tuesday after the release of the July CPI report, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq both touching new records. Though the data showed inflation had ticked up, it increased by less than expected. The results boosted bets the Fed would cut interest rates at its September policy meeting, especially in light of recent warnings signs the labor market is weakening. On Wednesday morning, traders had priced in a nearly 100% chance of a September cut, according to the CME Group. Later this week, investors will get two more snapshots on the state of the economy with the release of the Producer Price Index on Thursday and retail sales data on Friday. In corporate news, Circle (CRCL) fell Wednesday after the company announced it would sell 10 million shares on the heels of its first earnings report since its explosive public debut. Cava (CAVA) shares also dove after the company issued its first annual sales growth target cut. CoreWeave (CRWV) posted losses at the open as the company's operating income guidance fell below expectations as its cost of debt mounts, despite beating revenue estimates on strong demand for AI. Looking ahead, Cisco (CSCO) is Wednesday's earnings headliner after the closing bell. Stocks rise at the open US stocks moved higher on Wednesday after the open as expectations for Fed interest rate cuts rose. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose more than 0.5%, while the benchmark S&P 500 (^GSPC) gained 0.4%. Within the S&P 500, the Consumer Discretionary Sector (XLY) was up 0.7% , while the Technology Sector (XLK) climbed more than 0.6%. Treasury yields fall after Bessent urges Fed to lower rates US Treasury yields fell on Wednesday as traders increased bets that the Federal Reserve would cut interest rates at its September meeting following a rise in core inflation. At the same time, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urged the Fed to cut interest rates by 150 basis points in an interview with Bloomberg on Wednesday, maintaining political pressure on the central bank. The 10-year Treasury yield (^TNX) fell 4 basis points to 4.25%, and the 30-year yield (^TYX) dropped to 4.84%. Tencent earnings, trade truce lift China tech stocks As my colleague Jenny McCall notes below, strong domestic liquidity in China and positive sentiment from the US trade truce have boosted Chinese stocks in recent months. On Wednesday, that rally continued in top Chinese stocks, as recent inflation data boosted hopes for US interest rate cuts and tech companies gained greater clarity around the sale of Nvidia and AMD chips in China. Tencent ( gained 4.7% after the WeChat parent company reported revenue growth of 15%, above estimates. The company is also accelerating AI research to keep up with the competition, which includes Alibaba (BABA), ByteDance, and US companies OpenAI and Anthropic. US-listed shares of e-commerce company Alibaba rose 3.6%, while (JD) added 2%. Baidu (BIDU) climbed 2.5%, and PDD Holdings (PDD) rose 1.9%. VIX fear gauge sinks to lowest level since December The VIX (^VIX) volatility index, a key fear gauge in markets, slipped to 14.49 on Wednesday morning, hitting its lowest level since late December 2024. Despite geopolitical tensions and lingering tariff uncertainty, there are a few reasons why markets are pricing in fewer swings. For one, investors are holding a lot of cash and buying assets at lower prices during sell-offs, according to Bloomberg. Second, the global economy appears to be holding up better than investors expected after President Trump unleashed "Liberation Day" tariffs in April. At that time, the VIX spiked to 52.

But notably, the big news items don't really involve bitcoin (BTC-USD), Yahoo Finance's Hamza Shaban notes in today's Morning Brief. Hamza writes: Japan's Nikkei hits all-time high The Nikkei 225, the primary index for the Tokyo Stock Exchange, is trading at all-time highs amid optimism that confusion over the recent US-Japan trade agreement is being addressed in addition to the renewed strength in Big Tech. Domestically, Japan's key auto industry is cautiously optimistic that the the positive will outweigh any drag coming from tariffs. "The Nikkei was not able to hit a record until today because chip-related shares and auto shares dragged on the index," Takamasa Ikeda, senior portfolio manager at GCI Asset Management, told Reuters.

First, the company's net loss was much higher than consensus. Second, capital expenditures were a whopping $1 billion higher sequentially. And third, capex may climb another $500 million in the current quarter. While I appreciate the company's revenue backlog of $30.1 billion doubled year over year, the company's mixed results and high debt load are real causes for concern.
