The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 228.29 points (-0.47%) today after the release of November Consumer Price Index data, the first full CPI reading since October's delay due to a government shutdown. Persistent inflation and the Federal Reserve's three rate cuts, alongside pared-back 2025 cut expectations, prompted a rotation out of high-growth AI stocks into defensive value names such as Chevron and Procter & Gamble.
