US Equities (^GSPC, ^DJI, ^IXIC) have experienced a historic run, with the S&P 500 seeing multiple weeks of gains. However, February's Producer Price Index (PPI) reading revealed a 0.6% increase in wholesale prices. Carson Group Chief Market Strategist Ryan Detrick joins Yahoo Finance to discuss the latest PPI data and his perceptions of the market's strength. Detrick signals that initial weekly jobless claims are useful indicators of the economy's robust performance: "What caught me this morning though, we're still bullish, maybe a little pause would be normal, yes inflation is a little hotter, maybe you could argue the retail numbers are a tad weak, but look at claims. 209,000, I mean just quietly -- you hear about the layoffs, yet there's no spike in initial claims. The consumer is still strong, wages are still strong...but overall this backdrop is still there, its a strong economy, and still a bull market.

Britain's high court ruled Thursday that an Australian computer scientist is not, as he claimed, the mysterious creator of the bitcoin cryptocurrency. Craig Wright has for eight years claimed that he was the man behind “Satoshi Nakamoto,” the pseudonym that masked the identity of the creator of bitcoin. The organization claimed Wright had created an “elaborate false narrative” and forged documents to suggest he was Satoshi and had “terrorized” those who questioned him.

Economic data released Thursday morning — including February's Producer Price Index (PPI) and US retail sales — came out hotter than expected, showing that stickiness in inflation persists. Stifel Chief Economist Lindsey Piegza joins Yahoo Finance Live to discuss what these readings mean for the future of the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts. Piegza states that these prints will make it "hard for the Fed to justify a near-term rate reduction." She believes the Federal Reserve will wait until the second half of the year "to initiate a change in [monetary] policy." With investors anticipating a rate cut in June, Piegza considers this prediction "overly optimistic" given the elevated inflation data that has been released. Piegza suggests that the Fed "stopped short" of where rate hikes should have initially occurred, saying "they are allowing inflation to become fully entrenched the longer they sit on the sidelines."
