 I'm Laurence Simonetti, and this is the Fox Business Report. Stocks have been trading mixed after a fresh reading on inflation offered hope that the Federal Reserve could be lowering interest rates in coming months. The consumer price index for June declined one-tenth of a percent. For the year ending in June, the CPI moderated to 3%. And excluding food and energy, the annual increase was 3.3%. All the readings are cooler than economists were predicting.
