This dreadful September could be stuck in neutral. After the market saw a bit of a bounce on Monday, Tuesday, the Dow fell nearly 300 points, with broad losses across the other indices. The S&P 500 closed Tuesday at its lowest since Aug. 20, the Nasdaq NDAQ continued a 5-day losing streak, and the Dow, S&P 500, and Russell 2000 saw red for the sixth time in the last seven days. Investors continued to worry about how the delta variant could derail the economic recovery, along with worries about what moves the Fed could make. Inflation continues to be a concern, too.

Markets continued their bull rally today after a small setback yesterday, with all three major markets in the green. Pushing markets higher was lower Treasury yields, as more investors were comfortable adding risk in a low-yield environment, with fiscal and monetary stimulus providing downside protection. Travel has surged lately with the reopening of the economy, as American Airlines said that July 4 travel surged significantly since last year, as vaccinated movers get more comfortable flying. Later in the week, we will get the Federal Reserve minutes, which will give us insight on the tapering of their asset purchases and more insight into how concerned they are about increasing inflation. For investors looking to find the best opportunities, the deep learning algorithms at Q.ai have crunched the data to give you a set of Top Buys.

Amidst the anticipation of the Federal Reserve's statement at 2 PM Wednesday, stocks traded mildly higher among the suspense, as the Dow Jones ticked up 20 points, the S&P 500 rose 0.1%, and the Nasdaq NDAQ gained 0.2%. Based on producer prices data released on Tuesday, inflation could be growing at its fastest rate in over a decade. So eyes and ears are paying extra close attention to what the Fed will say. While no significant monetary policy shifts are expected, buckle up. The central bank could potentially say something about bond buying or interest rates that very well may move the markets one way or another.

After the Dow Jones saw its worst week since October thanks to a suddenly more hawkish Fed, it promptly kicked the week off, rising 580 points. It was the blue-chip index's best day since March. With the S&P and Nasdaq also back within striking distance of their record highs, stocks traded primarily flat on Tuesday. The Dow Jones dipped 10 points, while both the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq were flat. No significant catalysts moved the markets today.

A key inflation indicator, the core personal consumption expenditures, came in at 3.4%. Although this was the fastest increase since 1992, it came in largely as expected. Stocks continued their thunderous rally this week, officially forgetting about last week's Fed-induced downturn. Optimism was further bolstered by a bipartisan agreement on an infrastructure deal and banks passing the Fed's stress test in flying colors after yesterday's market close. The Dow Jones rose 160 points or 0.5%, the S&P 500 climbed 0.2% to hit another all-time high, and the Nasdaq gained 0.2%.

For the second day in a row, investors shook off hotter than expected inflation. Despite the consumer price index skyrocketing in May by 5% from a year ago, shattering the estimated 4.7% and the fastest the index rose since August 2008, investors largely overlooked it. The 10-year Treasury yield fell to 1.44% after trading as high as 1.77% earlier in the year, somewhat easing fears and showing that inflation may only be transitory. Investors also continued to cheer Thursday's jobless claims data which again hit a pandemic era low. The Dow Jones gained 100 points, the S&P 500 added 0.2% to its record high, and the Nasdaq ticked up 0.1%.

The stock market trembled in the midweek after the Federal Reserve announced Wednesday, 16 June, that it plans to hike interest rates as early as 2023. And though the Nasdaq NDAQ and S&P 500 both recovered fairly quickly from Wednesday's midafternoon slump, the Dow Jones Industrial Index wasn't quite so fortunate. The Fed's policy update deviates from previous estimates from the Fed, which pushed rate hikes out into 2024 and beyond. And while there was no mention of when the Fed will start to roll back its $120 billion per month bond purchase program, rest assured, investors are poised for that blow, too. But until that happens, we can all sit back, breathe a sigh of relief that the Fed didn't sweep the rug out from under our investment accounts overnight, and enjoy this week's trending stocks courtesy of Q.ai.

The stock market shook Wednesday after the Federal Reserve raised its inflation expectations for the year and moved up its next hike on interest rates. The policymaking Federal Open Market Committee noted that rate hikes may occur in 2023, a reversal from its March statements that it foresaw no increases until beyond then. However, a date for the Fed's expected reversal of its $120 billion per month bond buying program didn't come up, the Fed Chief has noted that the central bank will provide "advanced notice" before tapering asset purchases. This thrust investors' worries about fiscal policy decisions into the spotlight after weeks of nail-biting angst, while many individual stocks did indeed trend down for the day. But many of these stocks were already trending this week anyway on their own merits. Let's explore a few of them, and take a peek behind the curtain into what, exactly, is going on in some of America's biggest industries.
