Investors welcomed data showing US wholesale inflation unexpectedly eased in August, raising hopes that the Federal Reserve could proceed with an interest rate cut next week despite lingering price pressures from President Donald Trump’s tariffs. “Wednesday’s update essentially rolled out the red carpet for a Fed rate cut next week,” said Chris Larkin, managing director, trading and investing, at E-Trade from Morgan Stanley.
