Surprising data has arrived, the mood is deteriorating

The initial rise was replaced by a smaller fall on the US stock markets, after US producer prices increased more than expected in September based on the latest macro data. In addition to the Dow falling by 0.2 percent, the S&P 500 fell by 0.1 percent, but the Nasdaq is still in the red, rising by 0.2 percent.

Small increase in the USA

American stock markets opened higher, the Dow and S&P 500 rose by 0.4 percent, while the Nasdaq gained 0.6 percent. All this happened despite the fact that the producer price index rose by 0.5 percent in September, against expectations for a 0.3 percent increase. Although the September figure was slightly higher than what analysts had expected, it still represented a slowdown compared to the previous month’s 0.7 percent increase in producer prices. Investors’ focus will then turn to the minutes of the Fed’s latest meeting that will arrive in the evening, followed by Thursday’s consumer price index data.
