The U.S. inflation data for November met expectations, clearing the way for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates again at next week's meeting. The Nasdaq index rose 1.77%, breaking through 20,000 points, setting a new historical high and closing record.
Tech giants collectively rose, with Tesla up nearly 6%, reaching a historical high and raising its total market value to $1.36 trillion, expanding its year-to-date gain to 71%, second only to Nvidia (181%) and Meta (79%).

After a difficult start, Tesla experienced a turnaround in the fourth quarter, rising 62% since October, far surpassing the other companies among the seven giants.
