Wall Street saw a mixed performance on Wednesday. Despite a favorable consumer price index (CPI) report for February showing softer-than-expected inflation, the major stock indexes experienced varied results.

As a result, while some indexes started the day with gains, they later relinquished a significant portion of these early increases. This fluctuation underscores the complex interplay between domestic economic indicators and international trade relations.
