NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / February 15, 2018 / U.S. markets rallied sharply from early losses Wednesday as inflation fears appear to be easing on Wall Street. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 1.03 percent to close at 24,893.49, for its fourth consecutive daily gain, while the S&P 500 Index spiked 1.34 percent to close at 2,698.63. The Nasdaq Composite Index surged 1.86 percent to close at 7,143.62.

"Anything with inflation seems like a hot button nowadays, but it is a bit of a red herring here: higher inflation and higher rates are symptoms of economic health. And while inflation is rising it's still below trend," said Karyn Cavanaugh, senior market strategist at Voya Financial, according to MarketWatch.

"At this point it's not inflation but reflation and the Fed will not pull the trigger that fast," said Cavanaugh.
