A mix of bullish catalysts is poised to lift investor sentiment Wednesday, as President Donald Trump confirmed a China trade deal and fresh inflation data came in softer <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/45881899/inflation-resumes-climb-in-may-but-tariffs-have-yet-to-hit-consumers">than expected for May.</a>
Trump declared a sweeping new trade agreement with China via Truth Social following two days of negotiations in London, suggesting major concessions from Beijing and lighter U.S. obligations.
&#8220;Full magnets, and any necessary rare earths, will be supplied, up front, by China,&#8221; Trump said, adding that the U.S. would reciprocate by allowing Chinese students access to U.S. colleges. 
The deal, pending final approval with Chinese President Xi Jinping, includes a significant tariff shift. The U.S. will continue applying tariffs totaling 55% on selected Chinese imports, while China will impose a 10% tariff rate on U.S. goods.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Inflation Rises Less Than Expected In May, Easing Tariff Anxiety</h3>
U.S. consumer inflation was softer than expected in May, reinforcing expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts later this year.
The Consumer Price Index rose 2.4% from a year earlier, undercutting the 2.5% forecasted by economists and edging slightly above April's 2.3% reading. On a monthly basis, prices climbed just 0.1%, slower than both the prior month's 0.2% and the consensus estimate.
Core CPI—which excludes food and energy—held steady at 2.8% year over year, missing the 2.9% projection. Month over month, core prices advanced only 0.1%, undershooting the expected 0.3%.
Energy prices were a major drag, falling 1% in May. Gasoline plunged 2.6%, reversing the prior month's rise. On the flip side, services like medical care and motor vehicle insurance saw upward pressure.
&#8220;With lower-than-expected numbers across the board and a trade deal with China that was agreed to in London, the narrative around tariff-induced inflation should subside,&#8221; said Chris Zaccarelli, chief investment officer for Northlight Asset Management.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How Close Are We to New Highs?</h3>
In premarket trading, the S&amp;P 500 index traded at 6,050, up 0.20%, while the Nasdaq 100 added 0.25% to reach 21,990.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.1% to 42,924.
Both the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq 100 are now less than 2 percentage points from their all-time highs, at 1.6% and 1.1% away, respectively.

Movius Partners With NICE To Integrate MultiLine Solution With NICE's NTR-X Cloud, Compliance Recording And Assurance Solution

Rosenblatt analyst Catharine Trebnick maintained NICE Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NICE#NASDAQ">NICE</a>) with a Buy rating and lowered the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NICE/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast from&nbsp;$200&nbsp;to&nbsp;$180</a> Thursday.
Trebnick lowered her price forecast due to reduced fiscal 2025 and 2026 revenue estimates, citing macroeconomic uncertainty, which could further delay multinational Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) deployments.
The price target reflects ~3.4 times (from ~4 times) on the analyst&#8217;s revenue estimate of 7% Y/ Y in fiscal 2026.

NICE stock is trading at 2.7 times EV/calendar 2026 sales, growing at 7% Y/Y and a slight premium to the CCaaS group average of 2.3 times, growing at 9% Y/Y.
Trebnick&#8217;s valuation is justified based on higher free cash flow assumptions (26% Y/Y versus the peer group of 19%). The analyst has decreased her fiscal 2025 revenue growth assumption to 6% below fiscal 2025 guidance (+7% growth).
Trebnick&#8217;s fiscal 2025 estimate has been revised to $2.91 billion (+6% growth) from $2.93 billion (+7% growth) and below the Street&#8217;s $2.91 billion (+7% growth).
Similarly, she has decreased her fiscal 2026 estimate to $3.12 billion (+7% growth) from $3.22 billion (+10% growth) and below the Street&#8217;s $3.12 billion (+7% growth).
Based on lower revenue, Trebnick&#8217;s adjusted operating income moves slightly lower to $909 million (31% margin), below the current Street estimate ($919 million).
For fiscal 2026, the analyst&#8217;s adjusted operating income is now $1.02 billion ( 32.6% margin), slightly above the Street estimate of $1.01 billion (32.3% margin).
Based on lower sales volume, Trebnick&#8217;s fiscal 2025 adjusted EPS is $12.13 (down from $12.14), below the Street estimate of $12.18.
Looking ahead to fiscal 2026 and lower revenue growth of 7%, the analyst&#8217;s adjusted EPS moves to $13.30 (versus the Street estimate of $13.36).
Trebnick noted that the company benefits from AI adoption in CCaaS and is a share donor from Avaya in the large enterprise segment.
Price Action:&nbsp;NICE stock closed higher by 2.06% at $154.52 on Thursday.
