U.S. stock futures were trading higher during Thursday's evening deals, after major benchmark indices posted their best daily advances since 2020 as weaker-than-expected CPI data boosted bets for less aggressive rate hikes from central bank policymakers going forward. By 18:40 ET (23:40 GMT) Dow Jones Futures were up 0.1%, while S&P 500 Futures and Nasdaq 100 Futures were up 0.2% apiece. In extended deals, Compass Inc (NYSE:COMP) fell 7.4% after reporting Q3 losses of $0.36 per share, greater than expected losses of $0.30 per share, while revenue came in at $1.49 billion versus $1.46B expected. Ahead in Friday’s session, investors will be looking toward preliminary University of Michigan consumer sentiment data. On the data front, Consumer Price Index data came in at 7.7% year-on-year versus expectations of 8%, declining for the 5th consecutive period and cooling from last month’s reading of 8.2%. On the bond markets, United States 10-Year rates fell to 3.811%. Source: Investing.com #Dowfutures
