U.S. stock indexes finished higher on Friday with the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 closing out their third winning week in a row, bolstered by better-than-expected earnings from megacap technology companies and hopes that the Federal Reserve will tame inflation by hiking interest rates aggressively without causing a recession.

In U.S. economic data, the personal consumption expenditures price index showed U.S. inflation eased 0.2% in June, compared with May’s increase of 0.3%. The rate of core inflation, which omits volatile food and energy prices, rose 4.1% in the last 12 months, down sharply from May’s 4.6% increase, but that still puts it at a more than two-year low. It’s still far above the Fed’s 2% target, however.
Meanwhile, consumer spending rose 0.5% in June in a sign of confidence as inflation eased again and the U.S. economy continued to grow.
