- S&P 500 surged to a record high, powered by tech stocks, as oil prices eased and producer inflation came in less hot, according to Reuters.
- U.S. stocks broadly rose toward records on softer wholesale/producer inflation and declining oil prices, per AP News and CNBC.
Why it matters: The S&P 500 setting a fresh record alongside easing producer inflation and oil prices signals a constructive risk environment for equity investors, with falling input costs reducing pressure on corporate margins.
