Sept 10 (Reuters) - The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq hit

intraday record highs at the open on Wednesday, after

cooler-than-expected producer inflation data boosted bets on

interest-rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, while a surge in

cloud computing firm Oracle added to gains.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 20.2 points, or

0.04%, at the open to 45,731.5. The S&P 500 rose 37.7

points, or 0.58%, at the open to 6,550.29​, while the Nasdaq

Composite rose 101.1 points, or 0.46%, to 21,980.601 at

the opening bell.
