Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq futures hold steady as Wall Street braces for July inflation report
US stock futures wavered around the flatline as Wall Street braced for July's inflation report and President Trump revealed his pick to head the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Futures attached to the Dow Jones Industrial Average (YM=F), the benchmark S&P 500 (ES=F), and the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 (NQ=F) held steady. After the bell on Monday, Trump announced that he nominated E.J. Antoni, chief economist at the conservative Heritage Foundation, to lead the BLS. "E.J. will ensure that the Numbers released are HONEST and ACCURATE," the president said on Truth Social. Trump fired Erika McEntarfer as commissioner of the BLS earlier this month following the release of the July jobs report, which contained "larger than normal" revisions to data and revealed fewer jobs than previously thought had been added to the economy. Trump said, without providing evidence, that McEntarfer had been acting politically and her numbers "were wrong." Trump also met with Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan Monday evening, which boosted its stock in after-hours trading. Last week, the president called for Tan to resign, but after Monday's meeting he indicated his cabinet would continue discussions with the CEO, without specifying the topics under consideration. During day trading, stocks slumped even as Trump granted another 90-day pause on the most punishing tariffs on China as the two countries work toward a trade deal. Read more: The latest on Trump's tariffs Wall Street is preparing for the release of July's Consumer Price Index (CPI) report on Tuesday morning. Analysts expect it to show that prices increased as Trump's tariffs kicked in. A hot inflation report could put the Federal Reserve in a tight spot as it navigates rising prices amid recent signs of a weakening labor market. In the background, anticipation over the possibility of a September interest rate cut continues to grow. Investors will get two more pulse checks on the state of the economy later this week, with the release of the Producer Price Index on Thursday and retail sales data on Friday.

Trump feels squeeze from tariffs
Trump campaigned in 2024 on bringing down the cost of groceries and other staples, a message that resonated strongly with voters. More than six months into Trump's second term, however, the costs of groceries, and other essential goods, such as cars, have continued to rise, corresponding with a drop in Trump's job approval rating and a souring public view of Trump's handling of the economy. The cost of even 'cheap' eats has become fodder for debate on social media, as people grumble about everything from the price of McDonald's hash browns to Coca-Cola. The price of eggs has come down in recent months, but a dozen are still, on average, 64 cents more expensive than a year ago, while the price of chicken, ground beef and orange juice were more expensive last month compared to a year ago. While inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index has stabilized at 2.7 percent, policymakers fear the prices of goods and services could spike up again, which is a big reason the Federal Reserve is hesitant to cut interest rates, a major point of tension between Fed Chair Jerome Powell and Trump. The Hill's Alex Bolton has more here.

Chicago mayor: Trump sending National Guard would ‘only serve to destabilize our city'
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) said Monday that President Trump sending the National Guard to his city would 'only serve to destabilize' it. 'From my first day in office, public safety has been my top priority. In just two years we have made historic progress, driving down homicides by more than 30% and reducing shootings by almost 40% in the last year alone,' Johnson said in a Monday statement. 'Last week, we learned that President Trump cut another $158 million in funding for violence prevention programs in cities like Chicago. These cuts are on top of the Trump administration dismantling the Office of Gun Violence Prevention and terminating more than $800 million in grants for anti-violence programs across the country,' he added. Johnson added that in the case Trump 'wants to help make Chicago safer, he can start by releasing the funds for anti-violence programs that have been critical to our work to drive down crime and violence.' 'Sending in the national guard would only serve to destabilize our city and undermine our public safety efforts,' he added. Johnson's comments come after Trump on Monday singled out Chicago while announcing he was taking control of the District of Columbia's police and deploying the National Guard. The president threatened also to send the Guard to the Windy City and announced he would end no cash bail despite it being a state law. Trump portrayed the moves, which will involve around 800 National Guard troops, as a response to high crime rates in the nation's capital. Police statistics, however, show that crime rates in the District have fallen sharply over the past two years. 'Our capital city has been overtaken by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals, roving mobs of wild youth, drugged-out maniacs and homeless people, and we're not going to let it happen anymore. We're not going to take it,' the president said. The president is taking over the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) by way of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act's Section 740. Congress passed the act in the 1970s to give D.C. control over its local affairs. Trump's action in the nation's capital follows his deployment of National Guard and Marine Corps troops to Los Angeles a few months ago. The president's law enforcement moves in both cities have drawn intense backlash from Democrats, as well as residents of the cities. The president also has a history of clashing with Chicago leaders, blaming them in 2018 for what he called an unbelievable surge in gun violence in the city.
