Stop everything, benchmark Grok 4.6.
And yeah, quite a few steps to get these benchmarks setup. I typically use Fable 5 Low effort as my orchestrator for these.

Stocks and Bonds Rise After Tame US CPI
US stocks and bonds gained after July inflation data came in line with expectations, reducing fears of an imminent Federal Reserve rate hike. Core CPI rose 0.2% month-over-month and 2.5% annually, while markets now price less than a 50% chance of a September rate increase.
The S&P 500 rose 0.2%, while the Nasdaq 100 gained 0.7%, helped by strong AI-related companies. Treasury yields fell, with the 10-year yield down to 4.67%. Oil remained around $83 a barrel, keeping inflation risks elevated.
