Three Fed officials preferred a rate hike. Meanwhile, Brent crude jumped above $88 after renewed fighting involving Iran raised concerns about global oil supplies and another inflation wave. After the close, Microsoft demonstrated that major A I spending can produce measurable returns as Azure grew 43%. Meta delivered strong revenue growth, but sharply higher expenses and collapsing free cash flow produced a very different reaction. Thursday brings second-quarter GDP, PCE inflation, and earnings from Apple and Amazon. Friday brings the Employment Cost Index, an important measure of wage pressure.
