A late-day reversal sent the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq to record closing highs for the second day running. The Dow, however, faltered a bit.
Wall Street is bracing for the latest inflation reading from the Consumer Price Index and results from the Federal Reserve. Policymakers wrap up their two-day meeting on June 12 and are likely to provide clues on how many interest rate cuts could be in the pipeline for this year.

Sticking with AI, or Apple Intelligence, as Apple likes to call it, Elon Musk is weighing in – with a resounding ‘thanks, but no thanks.’ He went on X Monday to say that he will ban iPhones, iPads, and Macs in the office if Apple integrates ChatGPT into the Apple operating system. The ban would be in effect for all his companies – including SpaceX and X. Even visitors would have to leave their devices at the door.
Musk wrote that the Apple-ChatGPT combo would be “an unacceptable security violation.”
