Central Garden & Pet, Energizer, Lamb Weston, Utz, and BellRing Brands Shares Are Soaring, What You Need To KnowA number of stocks jumped in the afternoon session after markets continued to rally as a surprisingly subdued inflation report fueled hopes for an imminent interest rate cut from the U.S. Federal Reserve.
