  • U.S. and European stocks ticked higher on Tuesday as a sell-off in bonds moderated, although investors remained cautious ahead of U.S. consumer price inflation data on Wednesday and Donald Trump's inauguration as president next week.

The article from Reuters, published on January 14, 2025, discusses the global financial markets' reactions to various economic indicators and geopolitical events. Key points include a slight recovery in Wall Street after a volatile week, influenced by mixed U.S. economic data showing a decrease in retail sales but an increase in industrial production. European markets also showed mixed responses with concerns over inflation and potential ECB rate hikes. In Asia, markets were cautious due to ongoing U.S.-China trade tensions, although there was some optimism from positive developments in China's economic stimulus measures. Additionally, the article touches on the impact of a stronger dollar, rising oil prices due to Middle Eastern tensions, and the anticipation of upcoming corporate earnings reports which could sway market directions further.
