U.S. Inflation Rises, But Markets Remain Steady

TL;DR Summary
U.S. inflation rose slightly in October, with core inflation at 2.8% annually, but this did not alarm investors. The S&P 500 ended its seven-day rally, and the Nasdaq dropped 0.6% as traders took profits from Big Tech stocks. Despite the market dip, investors remain optimistic, with many betting on a Federal Reserve rate cut in December. Bitcoin, meanwhile, rebounded by 5.4%, moving contrary to U.S. stock trends. Overall, the market remains stable, with most S&P stocks above their 200-day moving average, as investors prepare for Thanksgiving.
