Wall Street rises in thin post-holiday session as Fed cut odds strengthen
US equities climbed in a low-volume session with the Dow advancing 0.61%, S&P 500 up 0.54%, and the Nasdaq gaining as investors priced in higher odds of a December Federal Reserve rate cut. Rate cut probability above 80%, supported by easing inflation and soft labour market indicators.
