S&P 500 futures broke a four-day losing streak to trade higher, with the March contract reaching 6,850. The primary catalyst was the U.S. CPI release, which came in below expectations and shifted sentiment regarding short-term inflation. This data move pushed yields lower and spurred buying pressure across the major equity index futures markets. While the S&P 500 remains within its recent range of 6,700 to 6,900, the Nasdaq-100 showed the most relative strength during the session, gaining nearly 1%.
