Stock Market Today

  • Markets Enter Wait-and-See Mode Amid Geopolitical Tensions and Soft Inflation Data
    January 26, 2026, 11:48 AM EST. Markets showed muted trading volumes this week as stocks and metals consolidated. The US Consumer Price Index (CPI) came in slightly below expectations at 2.5%, increasing bets on steady interest rates for upcoming Federal Reserve meetings. However, 30-year US Treasury yields fell, signaling some safe-haven demand. Geopolitical risks intensified with unrest in Iran and threats from US President Donald Trump, causing volatility in crude oil, though markets largely ignored escalation fears. The Nasdaq lagged behind the Russell 2000 and S&P 500 amid bullish movement in industrial and energy sectors, suggesting potential sector rotation. The CNN Fear & Greed Index indicated strong investor confidence, while market breadth remained neutral. Next week, focus will shift to Thursday's PCE inflation data and the World Economic Forum in Davos, where policymakers' statements could influence markets further.
