Monday saw a rebound in Wall Street's major stock indexes after a challenging week, as investors positioned themselves ahead of crucial inflation reports and next week's Federal Reserve policy decision.

This week's highlights include the consumer price index (CPI) report, expected on Wednesday, and Tuesday night's first presidential debate between U.S. candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Global markets were unsettled by concerns over the U.S. economy and the Fed's rate strategy, especially after disappointing August jobs data.

According to Phil Blancato, chief market strategist at Osaic Wealth, New York, the market's reaction to any deviation from expected inflation figures could prove volatile. Financials and industrials led Monday's gains, with notable stock movements such as Nvidia's recovery and Apple's newest iPhone announcement playing significant roles in market dynamics.
