Yet any mention of cutting the DOD budget is met with all sorts of attacks from both sides.

Stocks jumped Friday, and Wall Street capped off a turbulent week on a positive note as investors weighed fresh U.S. inflation data.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied 654.27 points, or 1.64%, to finish at 40,589.34. The S&P 500 climbed 1.11% to end at 5,459.10, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 1.03% to close at 17,357.88.

Friday’s moves stem from a combination of oversold sentiment, a stronger-than-expected GDP report Thursday and the view that the Federal Reserve will begin cutting rates due to economic resilience, said CFRA Research’s Sam Stovall.

“Today’s benign PCE report helped talk the market off the ledge,” he added. “With this pullback, the great rotation lives on and breadth continues to be on our side.”

Investors continued their pivot into cyclical areas of the market and small caps, with the Russell 2000 rising 1.67%. Industrials and materials stocks rose, lifting their respective S&P sectors by about 1.7%. 3M skyrocketed 23%, leading the industrials sector to the upside. The stock notched its best day since at least 1972.

Some technology names that have struggled amid this week’s sell-off gained, with Microsoft and Amazon adding more than 1% each. Meta Platforms climbed nearly 3%. The S&P’s information technology sector surged about 1%.

Wall Street also assessed June’s personal consumption expenditures price index, an inflation reading that is preferred by central bank policymakers. On a monthly basis, headline PCE rose 0.1% and 2.5% from a year ago. That was in line with estimates from economists polled by Dow Jones.
