Stocks rise as Wall Streets adds to its strong recent run

Stocks are ticking higher to add a bit more to Wall Street’s newfound strength. The S&P 500 was 0.4% higher Monday after coming off its first winning week in the last four. The Dow and the Nasdaq also rose. The yield on the 10-year Treasury eased a bit lower to take off some pressure on stocks. The stock market has found some footing over the last week after a roller-coaster start to the year where a swift rise gave way to a sharp tumble. At the center of it all has been high inflation and expectations for what the Federal Reserve will do about it.
