Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq futures climb as Fed rate cut bets surge after inflation data
US stock futures climbed on Wednesday amid increasing expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates at its next meeting, following the latest inflation data. 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) edged up 0.1%. In day trading, stocks roared 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. In after-hours trading, Circle (CRCL) sank 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) saw losses too despite beating revenue estimates on strong demand for AI. 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.

Barcelona summer signing reflects on his adaptation and changes he has experienced – ‘It is very intense'
Marcus Rashford has spoken about his first impressions as a Barcelona player, giving fans an insight into how he is adapting to life at his new club. In an interview with the programme The Rest Is Football, hosted by Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer, and Micah Richards, the summer signing expressed his excitement at joining a young, hungry team eager for success. Rashford revealed that the atmosphere within the squad has been a key highlight, praising the energy and style of play that defines the club. One name, in particular, stood out to him from the very beginning. 'Honestly, it is very refreshing to be able to play with these players and play football at their own tempo [rhythm] like Pedri, who I think is only 22 or 23 years old.' When asked about his objectives for the season, Rashford made it clear that team achievements take priority over personal milestones. 'I hope to have a good individual season, but if I have to choose between that and winning titles, choose to win titles.' Adapting to Barça's intensity While Rashford has settled in well, he also admitted that the intensity of Barcelona's training sessions has been a challenge. The pace and demands of the pre-season were further complicated by the weather conditions during the club's Asian tour. 'Here, it is very intense. It is difficult to explain, but the pre-season has been difficult; I was tired after every workout, and the weather also played a role. 'Running is not difficult; it is more about practising with the ball and maintaining a consistent level. In this sense, the intensity is more complex,' he noted. For Rashford, the first few weeks have been both exciting and demanding. As he adjusts to Hansi Flick's methods and forms connections with his new teammates, the forward will be eager to make his mark when the competitive season begins.
