Today is a day of relatively minor fluctuations as compared to the wild roller coaster rides we had recently. There was a biased towards south in the beginning due to the release of the CPI, which is really bad news with inflation growing at the highest pace in 17 years.
But it turned positive and ended in that way when oil prices dropped further, despite the Georgia impasse. The lowering of the prices helped to lift trading sentiments and Dow Jones did a mini rally to end up 82.97.
