In the latest updates from Wall Street, the Dow Jones Industrial Average surged nearly 400 points, while the S&P 500 reached a record high. Investors focused on upcoming Fed minutes and inflation reports, leading to a positive market sentiment despite concerns surrounding major tech stocks like Alphabet, which faced pressure from a DOJ-related news. Energy stocks led a slight decline in other sectors, but overall, optimism prevailed as the markets shook off early October uncertainties. The anticipation of third-quarter earnings and economic signals continues to shape investor sentiment, keeping futures relatively stable ahead of critical Fed discussions.
