Aug 30 (Reuters) -The Nasdaq and S&P 500 ended higher onFriday, with Tesla and Amazon climbing after fresh U.S. economic data raised expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates modestly in September.
U.S. consumer spending increased solidly in July, suggesting the economy remained strong while prices rose moderately.
"Investors are seeing another sign of being in a soft landing," said Cameron Dawson, chief investment officer at Newedge Wealth. "It's another one of those Goldilocks kind of reports really threading a needle right down the center. The market is really getting exactly what it wanted."
A "just-right" Goldilocks economy has steady growth, but not too much that it fuels excessive inflation.
Amazon.com AMZN.O and Tesla TSLA.O each made gains.
Broadcom AVGO.O rallied, while Marvell Technology MRVL.O surged afterthe chipmaker forecast quarterly results above estimates.
Friday's personal consumption expenditures report was the last major economic data release before the Fed's September meeting. Chair Jerome Powell last week expressed support for an imminent policy adjustment.
Money markets suggest traders mostly expect the Fed to cut rates by 25 basis points in September, with odds of a 50 basis point cut dimming further after Friday's data, according to CME Group's FedWatch Tool.
Friday ends a tumultuous month on Wall Street after signs of a sudden moderation in the labor market in early August sparked fears of a U.S. recession. The influence of the Japanese yen JPY= carry trade worsened the rout.
Shares have rebounded since then, with the S&P 500 trading near record highs.
Trading volume has been thin this week ahead of Monday'sU.S. stock market holiday for Labor Day.
According to preliminary data, the S&P 500 .SPX gained 55.64 points, or 1.00%, to end at 5,647.60 points, while the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC gained 194.30 points, or 1.11%, to 17,710.73. The Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI rose 214.86 points, or 0.52%, to 41,549.91.
Nvidia NVDA.O rose, rebounding from a 6.4% drop in the previous session after the artificial intelligence-chip bellwether failed to match sky-high investor expectations, despite upbeat results and a broadly in-line forecast.
Ulta Beauty ULTA.O slid after it trimmed its annual results forecasts, citing slowing demand for higher-priced cosmetics and fragrances at its stores.
Intel INTC.O jumpedfollowing a report it was exploring options that could include a merger.
Dell Technologies DELL.N, another AI-related stock, advancedafter lifting its annual revenue and profit forecasts.
Shares of Trump Media & Technology Group DJT.O, majority owned by former U.S. President Donald Trump, dippedto a record low, leaving its stock market value at $3.9 billion.
