Recent moderation in October CPI, combined with a sharp drop in oil prices, has eased immediate inflation concerns and supported a rebound in the S&P 500 during the week of November 9. The index posted a 2.35% gain on November 9 to close near 7,550 before consolidating around the 7,520–7,619 range through November 12, reflecting resilient risk appetite despite Nvidia volatility and mixed earnings. Lower energy costs reduced near-term price pressures, while solid prior nonfarm payrolls and corporate results in technology and industrials reinforced equity momentum. With the 10-year Treasury yield holding near 4.86%, traders are monitoring Friday’s PPI release and upcoming retail sales for further signals on the Fed’s rate path ahead of December policy deliberations.
