The Ibex focuses on the US CPI

Financial markets are bracing for the latest US inflation data, due to be released at 14:30 Spanish time, ahead of the Federal Reserve meeting. The inflation rate for September is expected to show a slight increase, from 3.4% to 3.6%, and from 2.4% to 2.5% in the core rate. The data comes after a rise in oil prices, but analysts expect only a moderate impact. The Ibex and chip companies, including ASML, are likely to benefit from the expected figures.
