Welcome to our newsletter. Each week, we’ll share the top 3 things any investor needs?to know to help them stay on top of things!

A surprisingly resilient US economy is once again leading stocks higher:?US stock futures climbed before the bell on Tuesday as investors welcomed a pullback in surging oil prices, putting focus back on the ongoing debate over the economy and interest rates. ?

?Futures on the S&P 500 (ES=F) stepped up 0.4%, while Nasdaq 100 (NQ=F) rose 0.5% as tech megacaps began to recoup some of the previous session's losses. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures (YM=F) edged up roughly 0.2%.?

Treasury Rout Stalls as Traders Look to CPI to Inform Fed Bets:?The rout in US government debt paused as investors turned their attention to bond auctions and a key inflation report for clues on the Federal Reserve’s next steps. Treasuries advanced, led by the short-end, as bets on interest-rate cuts stabilized after a hawkish repricing in recent days. The two-year yield fell as much as six basis points to 3.94% and the 10-year rate fell three basis points to 3.99%.

Strong jobs data at the end of last week shocked traders betting on another big cut from the Fed this year and revived concern that inflation could reignite. Now investors are focusing on Thursday’s CPI print, which is expected to show a gradual slowdown in price growth.

China Vows to Hit Economic Goals, Stops Short of Large Stimulus:?China said it’s confident in reaching its economic targets this year and promised to further support growth, although it held back in unleashing more major stimulus in a disappointment to investors looking for more fuel for a world-beating stock rally.

Officials in the National Development and Reform Commission, the country’s economic planning agency, said Tuesday they would speed up spending while largely reiterating plans to boost investment and increase direct support for low-income groups and new graduates. They added that China would continue to issue ultra-long sovereign bonds next year to support major projects.
