CPI Pre Market tomorrow morning 7:30 A.M. CST
Some clearing firms are increasing the day trade margin requirements, prior to and immediately following the release.
The market exhibits serious, sharp moves during some of these events, especially if the number falls outside the expectations of the market.
- The Consumer Price Index likely rose 2.9% over the year ending January, the slowest year-over-year inflation since March 2021, forecasters predict.
- Policymakers at the Federal Reserve are watching inflation data closely to determine how soon, and how quickly, to cut the Fed’s key interest rate.
- The CPI, a widely-watched gauge of inflation compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, likely rose 2.9% over 12 months ending January, the lowest in nearly three years, according to a survey of economists by Dow Jones Newswires and the Wall Street Journal.
- Forecasters are anticipating January’s report to more than wipe out an unwelcome uptick in December.
- This and other inflation data over the next few months could be key in determining how soon, and how quickly, the Federal Reserve will cut its benchmark interest rate.
