US stocks ended higher after an inflation report showed declining consumer prices. The S&P 500 rose over 1%, led by technological stocks, especially Nvidia, which soared by over 8%. While the overall inflation rate has dropped to a three-year low, core inflation rose more than expected, affecting expectations for the Federal Reserve's upcoming interest rate cut decisions. A 25 basis point cut is anticipated as the odds for a larger reduction have decreased sharply. Additionally, GameStop shares dropped almost 12% following disappointing earnings and plans for a stock issue.
