Just caught the pre-market action this morning and it's interesting how things shifted once that CPI report hit. We were deep in red territory before the print, but now we're basically flat to slightly up. The latest CPI report came in pretty solid — headline inflation ticked down to 0.2% month-over-month and core CPI year-over-year is sitting at 2.5%, the lowest we've seen since early 2021. Energy prices falling hard (gasoline down 7.5%) definitely helped the numbers. Feels like this CPI data might've given some relief to the market after all the AI uncertainty noise lately. On the earnings side, mixed bag — Wendy's is getting crushed despite beating estimates (Ozempic effect is real), but Advance Auto Parts absolutely ripped it with a 110% earnings beat. Moderna also climbing on better-than-expected results. The CPI report basically reset the mood in pre-market, at least for now.
