NAS100 news today: what is driving the Nasdaq 100 index

Cooler CPI eases near-term Fed tightening bets
US CPI data released on 14 July 2026 showed headline inflation cooling to 3.5% year-on-year in June, below the 3.8% forecast, with prices falling 0.4% on the month.[2] The softer inflation report prompted traders to reduce expectations for additional near-term tightening, according to Reuters.[2] The reading coincided with a broad rebound in Nasdaq stocks, with the Nasdaq 100 index climbing 1.1% on the day, according to Bloomberg.[3]
Chip stocks lead the rebound as Warsh testimony comes into focus
Semiconductor and memory names advanced broadly on 14 July 2026, a day after a sell-off tied to renewed Middle East tensions and questions over AI infrastructure spending.[1] Attention has since turned to Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, who appears before the Senate Banking Committee on 15 July 2026 for the Semiannual Monetary Policy Report, a day after his House testimony.[5] Although the Fed maintained a restrictive policy stance at its June meeting, softer June inflation data tempered expectations for additional tightening, and markets are watching Warsh’s tone for confirmation of that shift.[8]
