Inflation Expectations Hit 4.3% on Iran War Shock

Why do economic reports move stocks?
Stock prices rest on two things interest rates control: the value of future profits and the appetite for risk. That is why a hotter-than-expected CPI inflation print or a strong jobs report can move every stock at once - the numbers change where investors expect the Federal Reserve to set rates. The desk covers each major release with what was expected, what arrived, and how markets repriced.
The calendar repeats monthly: CPI and PCE for inflation, nonfarm payrolls for employment, GDP for growth, and the Fed's FOMC meetings where policy is actually set. Each report writes through to the wiki entry explaining the indicator, so coverage of a payrolls surprise links directly to what nonfarm payrolls measures and why markets care.
