Major Averages Close Higher Led by Tech Stocks
The major averages closed higher as major technology names led broad gains as another round of softer-than-expected inflation data eased concerns that the Federal Reserve may need to tighten policy again this month. The producer price index for final demand fell 0.3% in June, driven by a 1.4% decline in goods prices, while services prices edged up 0.2%.
