US stocks mostly rise on better inflation data while dollar retreats
- On May 13, 2025, U.S. Stocks mostly rose with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq gaining while the Dow declined in New York trading.
- This market movement followed the release of benign April inflation data showing a 2.3 percent annual CPI increase and a U.S.-China trade de-escalation announced Monday.
- The Nasdaq led gains with a 1.6 percent rise, oil prices increased over two percent, and UnitedHealth shares fell sharply, dragging the Dow down.
- Investor confidence grew as inflation cooled below expectations, prompting more bets on Federal Reserve rate cuts and Goldman Sachs raising its S&P 500 year-end target to 6,100.
- The results suggest easing inflation and reduced trade tensions may support the economic outlook, though uncertainty remains due to ongoing tariff policy revisions and sector disparities.
