Wednesdayās release of the November Consumer Price Index (CPI) grabbed plenty of attention. Investors were laser-focused on how it might influence the Fedās next moves. Meanwhile, last weekās jobs data boosted confidence in the economy, adding fuel to the idea that the Federal Reserve might cut interest rates again soon. š¦
