Consumer Inflation,Bargain Hunting

Investors are gearing up for a consumer inflation print seen as crucial to determining the size of the first US interest-rate cut in years.

US stocks wavered on Tuesday as investors geared up for a looming consumer inflation report seen as crucial to determining the size of the first US interest-rate cut in years. The benchmark S&P 500 and tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite ticked up roughly 0.4% and 0.7%, respectively, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell about 0.2%. The moves follow Monday's sharp rebound, which saw the major gauges surge over 1% as investors went post-rout bargain hunting.

The countdown is on to the August consumer inflation reading on Wednesday, which could be decisive for rate-cut expectations after the monthly jobs report left the market guessing.
