PICTURED: The Dow Jones Industrial Average has been rising after finding support near its 50-day moving average line.

U.S. equities finished higher Thursday as investors digested December’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) data. The report showed consumer prices eased for the sixth-straight month, signaling the Federal Reserve (Fed) may be able to downshift the pace of rate hikes at their next policy meeting. The CPI fell 0.1% month-over-month, down from November’s 0.1% monthly gain. Core CPI (which excludes the more volatile food and energy prices) accelerated 0.3% month-over-month, a slight increase from the prior month’s 0.2% rise. Meanwhile headline CPI eased to a 6.5% annualized rate from November’s 7.1% print, while core CPI notched a 5.7% annual gain. The report cited a dip in energy prices while shelter, food, and clothing all notched increases.

Elsewhere on the data front, initial jobless claims for the week ended January 7 came in at 205,000, below estimates of a 215,000 print. The figure indicates the labor market remains tights, which could push the Federal Reserve (Fed) to keep interest rates higher for longer.

Treasuries strengthened after the report, with the yield on the benchmark 10-year note shedding 11 basis points (0.11%) to 3.42%, while the 30-year bond yield declined 10 basis points (0.10%) to 3.55%. The yield on the two-year note, which is more sensitive to changes in Fed policy, fell nine basis points (0.09%) to 4.12%. In commodities, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude climbed 1% to $78.20/barrel amid optimism over China’s demand outlook. The U.S. Dollar Index slipped 0.9%, adding further support to commodity prices.
