The Story
The day after the worst session in weeks, buyers came right back. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 929.97 points to 50,848.75 — up 1.86% — with the Nasdaq adding 2.5% and Europe's STOXX 600 up 0.5%. The same names that led Wednesday's inflation selloff led the bounce.

I'll be honest: a one-day rebound this size tells you more about positioning than about fundamentals. Nothing about Wednesday's hot CPI changed overnight; the ‘higher-for-longer’ math is exactly where it was. So I didn't chase the rip. I kept the book where it's been — tilted toward cash-flow — and let the fast money trade the noise.
