Consumer Inflation

Investors are gearing up for a consumer inflation print seen as crucial to determining the size of the first US interest-rate cut in years.

US stocks wavered on Tuesday as investors geared up for a looming consumer inflation report seen as crucial to determining the size of the first US interest-rate cut in years. The benchmark S&P 500 gave up earlier gains to hug the flatline by mid-morning trading while tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite ticked up roughly 0.2%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average saw losses escalate, with the index falling 0.5%, or about 200 points.

The countdown is on to the August consumer inflation reading on Wednesday, which could be decisive for rate-cut expectations after the monthly jobs report left the market guessing.
