Stock-market index trade higher after inflation report.

At 8:34 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were up 176 points, or 0.49%, S&P 500 e-minis were up 30.75 points, or 0.66%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 115.25 points, or 0.71%.

Inflation accelerated at its fastest pace since 1982 in November, the Labor Department said Friday, putting pressure on the economic recovery and raising the stakes for the Federal Reserve.

The consumer price index, which measures the cost of a wide-ranging basket of goods, rose 0.8% for the month, good for a 6.8% pace on a year over year basis and the fastest rate since June 1982.

Excluding food and energy prices, so-called core CPI was up 0.5% for the month and 4.9% from a year ago, which itself was the sharpest pickup since mid-1991.

The Dow Jones estimate was for a 6.7% annual gain for headline CPI and 4.9% for core.

    With inflation increasing, will interest rate increase and accelerate the tapering process? With interest rate rising will market start to fall? Do your own due diligence before you invest.
