US stock futures steadied on Friday after the major averages declined in the previous session, as investors awaited the August consumer price index report. A hotter-than-expected consumer inflation reading could cement expectations that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates next week, following Thursday’s data showing producer inflation accelerated last month as the Iran war drove up wholesale energy prices. In regular trading on Thursday, the Dow fell 0.61%, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite declined 0.59% and 0.65%, respectively. All three benchmarks extended their losing streaks to four sessions. Stocks came under pressure from surging oil prices and Treasury yields as inflation concerns intensified. In corporate news, Oracle gained more than 4% in extended trading after reporting better-than-expected quarterly results, while Adobe fell over 2% on weak guidance for the current quarter.
