CPI Data Report Explained
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) data report that came out today showed a 0.4% increase in inflation in December, which was slightly higher than the 0.3% economists had forecast. This had a mixed effect on the stock market, as inflation is seen as an indicator of economic growth, which is generally positive for stocks. On the other hand, a higher-than-expected CPI can lead to higher interest rates, which can have a negative effect on stocks. Overall, the stock market reacted positively to the news, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 both edging higher. (This was written by AI)
