８月３日（水）午前８時３０分（米国東部時間）に公表される消費者物価指数（CPI）速報に先駆け、主要指数先物は神経質な値動きを示している。債券利回りは消費者物価指数発表前に低下している。今回の報告が価格圧力の緩和が続いていることを確認した場合、米連邦準備制度理事会（FRB）は利上げを余儀なくされる可能性がある。経済学者やストラテジストは、FRB総裁のジェローム・パウエル氏が今月末に予定されている＜ジャクソンホール・シンポジウム＞で、利上げ見通しについてさらに明確な見解を示すと予想している。

Benzinga Market Summary: Indexes Rise Ahead Of Trump Inauguration, Supreme Court Upholds TikTok Law, China Meets 2024 GDP Growth Target

Risk appetite surged on Wall Street at the end of the week, with investors ramping up stock purchases ahead of Monday's market closure for Martin Luther King Day, which is also when Donald Trump will be sworn in as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">the 47th U.S. president.</a>
All major indices posted robust gains in midday trading, setting up for their strongest weekly performance since early November. Broad-based buying lifted every sector into the green, underscoring the strength of the rally.
Adding to the positive mood, the Israeli Security Cabinet approved a ceasefire deal with Hamas <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/43055426/oil-dips-as-israeli-security-cabinet-approves-gaza-ceasefire-yet-experts-warn-red-sea-risks-persist">in Gaza</a>, leaving final government approval as the last step before the agreement takes effect on Sunday.
Chipmaker Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) soared 8.9%, marking its biggest single-day jump since August 2024. The rally was fueled by rumors that the company could be a takeover target. 
Treasury yields edged higher but remained on track for steep weekly declines, following a softer-than-expected December inflation report that eased concerns over aggressive Federal Reserve policy.
The U.S. dollar rose 0.3% on Friday but is still slightly lower for the week, potentially snapping a six-week winning streak.
Gold prices steadied after Thursday's strong rally, while oil prices extended their decline as ceasefire efforts gained traction.
Cryptocurrency sentiment surged, driven by speculation that the incoming Trump administration could announce the creation of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43062518/2025-to-see-dogecoin-etf-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-microstrategy-of-ethereum-predicts-crypto-hedge-fund">a Bitcoin Reserve Fund.</a> Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) was up 5% to over $105,000.

Top 10 Trending Stocks On WallStreetBets As Of January 17, 2025 (Via Swaggy Stocks)

WIIM

Major indexes are higher ahead of the upcoming inauguration of President-elect Trump.

U.S. stock futures were trading higher on Friday morning, recovering from the previous day&#8217;s losses. Futures across all major indices showed gains.
Although the S&amp;P 500 ended its winning streak on Thursday, a strong Friday session could potentially result in the best weekly performance for the index since the November election.
The 10-year Treasury note yielded 4.60% and the two-year note was at 4.23%. Market expectations for the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting outcome on Jan. 31 suggest a high probability of 97.3% that the central bank will maintain interest rates at their current level, <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">according to</a> CME Group&#8217;s FedWatch tool.

While most sectors finished the day in positive territory, including utilities, real estate, and industrials, the technology and communication services sectors dragged down the overall market.

Insights From Analysts
As Donald Trump moves to the White House on Monday, Dec. 20, Robin Brooks, the ex-Goldman Sachs FX Strategist and a senior fellow at Brookings Institution <a href="https://www.brookings.edu/articles/china-tariffs-and-trump-2-0/">said</a> the tariff confrontation between the U.S. and China could prove detrimental to the S&amp;P 500.
China's most &#8220;potent weapon&#8221; is the depreciation of the yuan as an offset to additional U.S. tariffs. This could negatively impact the U.S. economy, potentially tightening financial conditions and weighing on the S&amp;P 500, Brooks said in his research note.
Even though the new administration may seek to mitigate this by implementing targeted tariffs or a phased-in, conditional universal tariff, he said, &#8220;Given how little is priced, it seems likely that market volatility will rise in the months ahead.&#8221;
Highlighting the corporate earnings in 2025, Callie Cox, the chief market strategist at Ritholtz Wealth Management, said in an X post &#8220;All 11 sectors are expected to report growing profits, which would be the first time that&#8217;s happened since 2018.

A bull market has lasted for 7.9 years on average over the last <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42430296/carson-researchs-50-year-study-suggests-that-the-26-months-old-bull-market-is-far-from-over">50 years</a>, according to data highlighted by Carson Research in their investment research's outlook for 2025.
What Happened: Carson Research&#8217;s report analyzing bull markets over the past 50 years shows that the 1987 and 2002 bull markets spanned five years each, while the 1974 bull market extended for 6.2 years.
Notably, the 2009 bull market lasted for 11 years, the longest in recent times. Additionally, the 1988 bull market held a record at 12.3 years.

&#8220;Looking at the previous 11 bull markets, we found the average bull lasted more than five years, suggesting even though this bull market is mighty, it could have plenty of room left to run,&#8221; the note stated.

Why It Matters: However, despite highlighting these statistics, the note added, &#8220;Bullishness is more pervasive now and we could see more volatility in 2025.&#8221;
According to Carson Research, two red flags for the stock market arise historically, the first is that 2025 is the third year of a bull market, and the second is that the valuations are stretched.
An analysis of the eight bull markets since 1950 that reached their third year revealed an average gain of only 2.1%.
On a concluding note the &#8216;Animal Spirits&#8217; report added, &#8220;While we remain overweight equities, we are looking to potentially add excess returns by investing in factors like low volatility and momentum within equities, and actively managed strategies on the fixed income side.&#8221;

Bull Markets Last For 7.9 Years On Average But Third-Year Returns Can Be Weak, Says This Research Firm

Wall Street paused for a breather on Thursday, following Wednesday's big rally sparked by a softer-than-predicted December inflation report that fueled speculation on the Federal Reserve delivering interest rate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43003047/stocks-rise-on-core-inflation-slowdown-banks-rally-after-strong-q4-earnings-treasury-yields-plummet">cuts during the year. </a>
By midday, stocks were little changed as attention shifted to the next major event: Donald Trump's inauguration as 47th U.S. president on Monday.

According to RMB Capital, the U.S. consumer remained resilient while U.S. government spending continued unchecked despite sticky inflation and higher interest rates.
&#8220;The incoming administration appears focused on the challenging task of bolstering economic growth while at the same time reducing the deficit. The most critical element of this endeavor will be curtailing the deficit while keeping longer-term yields contained, so as not to disrupt economic expansion,&#8221; it added.

Cathie Wood Says Inflation Worries Dampen Expectations, Schiff Singles Out Wall Street For Swallowing Narrative Even As Prices Soar

Economic activity expanded slightly to moderately across the Federal Reserve&#8217;s 12 districts during late November and December, yet concerns over looming changes to U.S. immigration and tariff policies cast a shadow on the future, according to the Fed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/federal-reserve">Beige Book released Wednesday. </a>
The latest Fed Beige Book report highlighted moderate growth in consumer spending, strong holiday sales and rising wages.
According to anecdotal economic insights from businesses and other contacts across the country, several Fed districts showed potential economic headwinds tied to expected policy shifts under President-elect Donald Trump.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How Expected Tariffs, Immigration Policies Shape Business Sentiment</h3>
Businesses are increasingly wary of the Trump administration&#8217;s plans to tighten immigration rules and impose steep tariffs. Trump has floated the idea of raising tariffs on Chinese goods to as much as 60% and applying 10% universal tariffs on imports from other nations.
The manufacturing sector appears particularly vulnerable, with contacts reporting efforts to stockpile raw materials in anticipation of higher tariffs.
Additionally, some businesses fear that restrictions on immigration could exacerbate labor shortages, especially in industries like construction and agriculture.
Business leaders across industries within the New York Fed District &#8220;expressed concern that potential import tariffs would push up prices,&#8221; the Beige Book stated.
In the Richmond Fed District, firms from various sectors expressed concerns and uncertainties about tariffs, port worker strikes and overall economic conditions heading into the new year.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wage Growth Picks Up, Inflationary Pressures Remain Modest</h3>
The labor market showed signs of strength, with wage growth accelerating to a moderate pace across most districts. Yet businesses reported growing uncertainty about future staffing needs, especially in light of potential policy changes.
Prices rose modestly overall, with businesses reporting a mix of flat, moderate or even declining selling prices in certain sectors like retail and manufacturing.
Input costs, particularly for health insurance and fuel, continued to climb, and some contacts predicted that higher tariffs would contribute to broader inflation in 2025.
While inflationary pressures remain contained for now, many businesses are bracing for price hikes if the new tariffs go into effect.
The agricultural sector struggled under weak farm incomes and adverse weather conditions. The spread of avian flu further tightened egg supplies, leading to a spike in prices. Energy activity, meanwhile, was mixed, with optimism about 2025 tempered by uncertainty over global demand.
Despite these challenges, the Beige Book revealed cautious optimism for the year ahead. More contacts reported a positive outlook for 2025 than a negative one, reflecting the resilience of the U.S. economy in the face of shifting political landscape.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reactions</h3>
Markets showed little reaction to the Fed Beige Book release. The S&amp;P 500, tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), maintained its session gains of 1.8%.
Tech stocks rallied further during early afternoon trading in New York. The Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) was 2.3% higher, eyeing its strongest session since Nov. 6, 2024, when tech stocks showed a post-election rally.
The U.S. dollar index was also little moved, with the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>) down 0.1% for the day.
Crude oil added gains, with the West Texas Intermediate light crude up by over 3% to $80 a barrel by 2:20 p.m. ET.

Fed Beige Book Flags Moderate Growth, Yet Tariffs, Immigration Policies Spark Concerns

Wall Street staged a strong rebound on Wednesday, as mixed inflation data bolstered investor confidence in the Federal Reserve's continuation of easing cycle in 2025, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43001512/inflation-rises-to-29-in-december-core-slows-yet-rising-energy-costs-put-feds-target-at-risk">easing recent market anxieties.</a>
The headline Consumer Price Index rose 2.9% year-over-year in December, up from November&#8217;s 2.7% and aligning with economist forecasts. On a monthly basis, headline inflation increased by 0.4%, up from November&#8217;s 0.3%, marking the sharpest monthly rise since March 2024.
The inflation report strengthened market expectations for Fed rate cuts in 2025. The probability of a rate cut by June climbed to 63%, up from 55% the previous day, with December futures now pricing in a 50% chance of two rate cuts.
The S&amp;P 500 advanced 1.5% by midday trading in New York, and the Dow Jones followed suit with a similar gain, both supported by strength in financial stocks. The Nasdaq 100 outperformed, rising 1.9%, while small-cap stocks posted a 1.7% gain.

Wall Street Rallies As Treasury Yields Fall, Banks Smash Q4 Earnings, Oil Hits $80: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Consumer inflation eased slightly in December, with core CPI coming in at 3.2% on a year-over-year basis, below the 3.3% estimate. 
Headline CPI rose 2.9% year-over-year, in-line with expectations. The print is the latest economic data that the Federal Reserve will consider before its next interest rate decision<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43001512/inflation-rises-to-29-in-december-core-slows-yet-rising-energy-costs-put-feds-target-at-risk"> later this month.</a>
Expert Ideas: Chris Zaccarelli, chief investment officer for Northlight Asset Management, highlighted the reductions in both month-over-month and year-over-year core inflation figures and sees the report as likely to alleviate some pressure in both the stock and bond markets. 
Joseph Brusuelas, RSM&#8216;s chief economist, noted that inflation remains sticky and seems to have stalled above the Fed's target rate of 2%. He pointed to the service sector and housing as two of the most stubborn areas.

"The December CPI affirmed the growing inclination at the Federal Reserve that any further rate cuts — if there are cuts at all in 2025 — by central bank policymakers should be postponed until the second half of the year,&#8221; Brusuelas said. 
Larry Tentarelli, chief technical strategist for Blue Chip Daily Trend Report, said that while the lower core inflation number is a "key positive," he still does not see the Fed cutting rates in the first quarter. 
"Inflation data remains somewhat sticky and the labor market has been constructively strong. Based on that, we expect the Fed to stay on hold for the next few months, unless there is a sharp drop off in employment data," Tentarelli said.&nbsp;
Jamie Cox, managing partner for Harris Financial Group, sees December's mixed CPI as a sign that inflation is "being pushed out of the system." 
"Core Inflation isn't accelerating and that's the story. The market may have had its hair on fire about inflation running away again, but the data do not support that conclusion," Cox said.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Markets React: All major U.S. indices opened higher Wednesday with the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), tracking the S&amp;P 500, up 1.71% at $592.12 and the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), tracking the Nasdaq 100 index, up 2.09% at $515.64 at the time of publication.&nbsp;

Interest Rate Cuts 'On Hold... If There Are Any At All In 2025' After December's Sticky Consumer Inflation Report: Economists

Major indices rallied on Wednesday after December inflation data showed underlying price pressures slowing, reducing fears of a prolonged pause in interest rate cuts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43001512/inflation-rises-to-29-in-december-core-slows-yet-rising-energy-costs-put-feds-target-at-risk">by the Federal Reserve. </a>
The headline Consumer Price Index rose 2.9% year-over-year in December, up from November's 2.7%, matching economist forecasts. On a monthly basis, headline inflation increased 0.4%, accelerating from the 0.3% surge in November and marking the largest monthly rise since March 2024.
Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, rose 3.2% year-over-year, slightly below the expected 3.3%. Month-over-month, core prices gained 0.2%, in line with forecasts.
The inflation data boosted expectations for Fed rate cuts in 2025. The probability of a rate cut by June rose to 68% from 55% the previous day, with December futures now indicating a 58% chance of two cuts by year-end.

US To Impose New Export Controls On Lab Equipment To Address Concerns About Biotechnology And AI

Consumer inflation surged for the third straight month in December, rekindling concerns that the months-long cooling of price pressures could be over and casting doubt on the Federal Reserve&#8217;s ability to steer inflation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/inflation">toward its 2% target.</a>
The headline Consumer Price Index rose 2.9% year-over-year in December, according to Wednesday&#8217;s data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This marks an increase from November's 2.7% and matches economist forecasts. Notably, it represents the third straight inflation increase and highest annual rate since July 2024.
On a monthly basis, consumer prices increased 0.4%, up from both the previous month's 0.3% gain and the 0.3% predicted by analysts.
The energy index climbed 2.6% in December, contributing to over 40% of the monthly increase in overall prices, with the gasoline index rising 4.4% during the month.
Core inflation, which strips out the volatile food and energy categories, rose by 3.2% on a year-over-year basis, below the 3.3% estimate. Month-over-month, core prices marked a 0.2% increase, matching estimates.
Items that witnessed an increase in December include shelter, airline fares, used cars and trucks, new vehicles, motor vehicle insurance and medical care.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reactions: Yields, Dollar Tumble </h3>
Prior to the release of the CPI report, traders priced in one 25-basis-point rate cut by December 2025, according to the CME FedWatch tool.
The mixed December inflation data could keep hopes for more than one rate cut by year-end quite stretched.
Treasury yields tumbled in response to the data, with the policy-sensitive two-year yield down 9 basis points to 4.28%. The U.S. dollar also weakened, with a key index tracking the greenback falling 0.5% during the session.
Equity markets reacted with optimism. Pre-market futures on the S&amp;P 500 rallied 1.5%, while contracts tied to the Nasdaq 100 soared 1.6%. 
On Tuesday, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) inched up 0.1%, while the Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) declined 0.1%.

Howard Marks, a veteran investor who accurately predicted the dot-com bubble, warns of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/42995814/billionaire-investor-who-predicted-the-dot-com-crash-25-years-ago-warns-of-another-market-storm-brewing-in-the-us">potential market risks</a> in his latest memo, &#8220;On Bubble Watch.&#8221; 
Marks highlights several concerning signs:
<ul>
<li>Over-optimism: High market exuberance and elevated S&amp;P 500 valuations.</li>
<li>AI Hype: Excessive enthusiasm for AI may be inflating valuations in the tech sector.</li>
<li>Magnificent 7 Reliance: Over-reliance on the continued success of a small group of dominant tech companies.</li>
<li>Index Investing Bias: Index fund inflows may be driving up prices regardless of intrinsic value.</li>
</ul>
While not definitively declaring a bubble, the co-founder and co-chairman of Oaktree Capital Management, Marks stresses the importance of acknowledging these risks. He acknowledges counterarguments, such as reasonable valuations for the &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; and a moderate P/E ratio for the S&amp;P 500.
Ultimately, Marks concludes that the market may be expensive and slightly overheated, but it doesn&#8217;t yet display the irrational exuberance typical of a true bubble.
&#8220;The markets are likely to remain listless until Monday&#8217;s Inauguration Day, when President Donald Trump is expected to issue numerous Executive Orders which might muddy rather than clarify the economic outlook,&#8221; said Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research in his QuickTakes.
Carson Research in their 2025 markets outlook, released on Tuesday said that they expect U.S. growth likely to outpace other global economies this year. They expect a 12-15% return from stocks.
&#8220;Looking at forward 12-month S&amp;P 500 earnings we once again see new highs, now at $271 per share, up from $225 in early 2023,&#8221; the report said.
&#8220;We are overweight equities and believe current forward earnings growth expectations remain supportive of stock gains given the economic backdrop.&#8221;

Can The Bull Market Sustain Itself?

Inflation came back into focus this week with the CPI and PPI reports being served up. What do they tell us about future Fed action? More importantly, what does it tell us about the path of the S&P 500 (SPY) from here. Read on for the full story... Inflation and the Fed were the main investment stories throughout 2024. However, in early January two other stories jumped to the front of the line:
<ul>
<li>Government debt concerns causing higher long term Treasury rates</li>
<li>Trump Tariff Plans (and the unknown outcome)</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
I give a pretty good accounting of these 2 vital stories in <a href="https://stocknews.com/news/spy-inx-dia-iwm-qqq-stock-market-expert-predicts-3-6-months-of-pain/">my commentary from earlier this week</a>.  Today the focus returns to inflation and the Fed as CPI and PPI reports were served up. Let's dig in to find out what they tell us.
Market Outlook
Coming down the home stretch of 2024 we endured several straight months of inflation reports that did not ebb lower. The Fed was fully aware of this leading to their 12/18 announcement that indeed inflation is a bit too persistent and thus they will slow down their planned pace of rate cuts.
Traders threw a tantrum like a 3 year old who was told they won't be getting a 4th slice of cake at the birthday party. This led to a broad market pullback with many groups in full blown correction territory (namely small caps and any groups that were counting on lower rates like home builders).
The good news is that the January inflation reports are showing some improvement in the data. Most investors will want to focus on the more widely followed CPI report from 1/15. There we saw core inflation cool a notch from 3.3% to 3.2%.
The most beneficial part of that release was the modest 0.2% month over month reading for core CPI. If that held up it would get the annual pace down closer to the 2% target.
Investors don't pay as much attention to the PPI report. However, economists understand it is a leading indicator of what shows up in CPI down the road.
Here too the best news was on the month over month numbers where core PPI was flat. If this moderating trend continues, then it once again helps point to getting inflation back to the 2% Fed target.
These reports did not move the needle on expectations for the next Fed meeting on 1/29. It is widely understood from last time that no rate cut will be forthcoming. In fact, they are projecting only 2 cuts in the year ahead with investors right now thinking that is next at the May or June meeting.
Pulling back to the bigger economic picture, the good news is that most of the data is in for economists to accurately model Q4 GDP. Most are coming out in a range of +2.5% to 3%. That would be a robust reading that should also point to solid earnings growth.
The best news on the economic front to share is that the NFIB Small Business Optimism index LEAPT from 93.7 in October before the election to 105.1 now. This is the highest reading since October 2018.
The more optimistic these business owners feel about the future...the more likely they are to invest in their business including the hiring of more employees to fuel growth. So this is great news to increase the odds of more quality GDP reads in the quarters to come.
For as good as all that economic news is, I still think the unknowns about government debt and especially tariffs will weight heavily on stocks.
Just don't see a current catalyst for the S&amp;P 500 (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/SPY/">SPY</a>) to make new highs above 6,100.
On the downside is the recent lows around 5,800. And if that falters then we are talking about a rendezvous with the 200 day moving average currently at 5,589.
That downside should not scare you that much. Especially since the bear market low is 3,491. Meaning that just like Virgina Slims ads "we've come a long way baby".
This just seems like a natural juncture to consolidate under the highs + sector rotation to shake off any excess valuations.
This means to expect a fair amount of volatility. Both big drops and big bounces. The kind of action that can get an investor nauseous.
The solution is to keep your eyes on the long term horizon which is still bullish. So best to use any forthcoming dips as an opportunity to load up on the best stocks for the next higher.
