Major US stock indexes rose significantly on Tuesday, as hopes for further incentives for a slowing Chinese economy and a surge in Netflix shares helped investors offset the disappointing earnings from JPMorgan and Wells Fargo.
The US data was also in focus. As the report of the Ministry of Labor showed, the producer price index for final demand fell by 0.2% in December after rising by 0.1% in November. This led to an annual increase in producer price index in December by 2.5%. Economists predicted that industrial inflation will decline by 0.1% over the month and increase by 2.5% on an annualized basis. At the same time, the basic producer price index fell in December by 0.1% after rising by 0.3% in November. In annual terms, the baseline value of industrial inflation increased by 2.7%, as in November.
Quotes of oil jumped by about 3% against the background of OPEC and Russia reduced production, as well as signs of a decline in US oil reserves. The number of US rigs looking for new oil fell slightly to 873, in early 2019, and a Reuters survey found that US crude stocks probably declined last week.

“The new attack by the ECB's supervisory authority on the Italian banking system and MPS once again shows that the banking union not only does not make our financial system more stable, but also causes instability,” Salvini said.
The far-right leader blamed the ECB for the exceptional decisions taken by the European Commission, adding that he raised a “fundamental question” about the bank’s perceived impartiality.
“Independence does not mean irresponsibility,” Salvini said, demanding greater transparency in decision making.
U.S. stock-index futures rose slightly on Tuesday, as disappointing quarterly results from JPMorgan (JPM; -2.3%) partly offset reports about China’s stimulus measures.

In December 2018, the Consumer Prices Index (CPI) was stable over a month, after a 0.2% downturn in November. The sharp drop in energy prices (−2.4% after −0.7%) and the downturn in those of manufactured products (−0.2% after +0.1%) were indeed offset by a rebound in the prices of services (+0.4% after −0.3%) and food (+0.6% after −0.2%).
Seasonally adjusted, consumer prices edged down by 0.2% over a month, after a 0.1% downturn in November.
Year on year, consumer prices slowed down for the second consecutive month: +1.6% in December after +1.9% in November and +2.2% in October. This drop in inflation came from a year-on-year slowdown in energy, services and tobacco prices and a larger drop in manufactured product prices. Contrariwise, food prices accelerated.
Food prices fell 0.2 percent in December 2018. After seasonal adjustment, they rose 0.5 percent.
In December 2018 compared with November 2018:
