Core CPI Inflation Eases; Lifting S&P 500 Futures, Fed Rate-Cut Hopes (Live)
Consumer price index data for December showed that core price pressures eased more than expected. S&P 500 futures rose as Wall Street weighed the CPI's implications for Federal Reserve policy as well as positive earnings reports from Dow Jones giants JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs. Stubbornly high inflation presents a problem for the Federal Reserve and the S&P 500 as President-elect Donald Trump is set to take office, because his policies are seen as likely to contribute to higher prices this year.

The consumer price index rose 0.4% last month after climbing 0.3% in November, the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said on Wednesday. In the 12 months through December, the CPI advanced 2.9% after increasing 2.7% in November.

South Africa accused of 'horrific' crackdown as 78 corpses pulled from besieged mine
STILFONTEIN, South Africa (Reuters) -At least 78 illegal miners have been pulled out dead from a South African mine where police blocked food and water supplies for months in what trade unions described as a "horrific" state crackdown on desperate people trying to eke out a living. A total of 78 bodies and 166 survivors - some of them emaciated and disorientated - have been hauled out so far in a court-ordered rescue operation that began on Monday, with hundreds more men still stuck 2 km (1.5 miles) below the surface in a gold mine at Stilfontein, southwest of Johannesburg. Police had stopped food and water supplies from being taken into the mine since August until a court ruled in December that volunteers could send down essential aid for the miners, known locally as "zama zamas".
