The Federal Reserve’s main inflation indicator, the personal consumption expenditures price index, increased by a seasonally adjusted 0.1% for the month, bringing the annual inflation rate to 2.3%, according to a Commerce Department report released on June 27.

The Fed sets its inflation target at 2%, a level that hasn’t been seen since early 2021. In addition to the inflation figures, there were indications of continued declines in consumer income and spending. In comparison to the projection of a 0.1% increase, spending decreased by 0.1% for the month.

“This morning’s news was consistent with other reports showing the economy gradually losing momentum in the second quarter, ahead of the brunt of tariff increases expected to wash ashore during the summer and early fall.”

The report came at a time where the Fed is currently weighing its next interest rate decision. Schlossberg added that while he still views such talk as “premature,” the report helps “keep hopes alive” for a rate drop in July.

Additionally, Wall Street continued its upward trend on June 27, pushing the S&P 500 and Nasdaq to record closing highs as investor risk appetite was stoked by trade deal hopes. Chuck Carlson, chief executive officer at Horizon Investment Services in Hammond, Indiana, added that “This market’s been pretty resilient,” and that “Investors are riding momentum and looking for breakouts.”

With that in mind, lets take a look at the best cyclical stocks to buy now.

MakeMyTrip Limited (NASDAQ:MMYT) ranks among the best cyclical stocks to buy now. On June 24, Macquarie upgraded the shares of MakeMyTrip Limited (NASDAQ:MMYT) from Neutral to Outperform, citing enhanced risk-reward dynamics in the wake of a recent share-price fall.

The upgrade followed MakeMyTrip’s announcement of a $3.1 billion capital increase to lower Trip.com’s stake. With a conversion price of $121.50, the capital consists of $1.43 billion in zero-coupon convertible notes due in 2030 and a primary share issuance of 18.4 million shares at $90 each.

By repurchasing the majority of Trip.com’s Class B shares, the company will reduce its ownership from 45.3% to roughly 17% and reduce its representation on the board from five to two seats. Macquarie analysts predict that the repurchase will result in a 12% decrease in MakeMyTrip’s basic share count, which will be compensated for by newly issued shares.

Online travel company MakeMyTrip Limited (NASDAQ:MMYT) offers a range of services and products, such as booking airline and bus tickets, vacation packages, hotel reservations, foreign exchange, and visa processing.
