Stocks today are mixed. The overall market garnered support today from a report from Bloomberg that said President-elect Trump’s economic team is considering a gradual ramp-up in trade tariffs in a strategy to avert a spike in inflation. Stocks also found support after US Dec producer prices rose less than expected, reducing inflation concerns and lowering T-note yields.
