Wall Street refrained from making big bets ahead of a key inflation report, with stocks losing steam after climbing to the brink of all-time highs. Treasuries fluctuated. The dollar rose.
With the earnings season almost done, investors are turning to economic data for clues on whether the Federal Reserve will be able cut rates in September. Markets barely budged after reports President Donald Trump extended a pause of tariffs on Chinese goods for another 90 days. The S&P 500 remained below 6,400. Apple Inc. slid after its best week since 2020. Intel Corp. climbed as its chief was expected to meet with Trump.
The yield on 10-year Treasuries was little changed at 4.28%. A dollar gauge rose 0.3%. Bitcoin briefly topped $122,000. Gold futures held losses after Trump said imports of bullion won’t be subject to US tariffs.
Data due Tuesday is forecast to show US consumers saw a slight pickup in inflation as retailers gradually raised prices on a variety of items subject to higher import duties.
The Fed’s two vice chairs, Michelle Bowman and Philip Jefferson, and Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan are under consideration to serve as chair of the central bank when the position opens next year, according to two administration officials. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will interview additional candidates in the coming weeks, said the officials.
