Why it matters

The Dow Jones is expected to have a cautious start due to the recent Gulf shipping attacks which have supported oil prices, while US futures remain relatively unchanged after the CPI release matched expectations. The inflation data showed a 0.3% month-on-month and 2.4% year-on-year increase in headline CPI. This suggests a stable economic environment with no major surprises in the inflation data.
