US stocks closed lower on Thursday with the Dow Jones Industrial Average down 0.60% to a one-month low, the S&P 500 down 0.58%, and the Nasdaq Composite down 0.65%. [^1]

The S&P 500 fell 0.58% to close at 7,591.75 points, the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.65% to 24,081.73, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.60% to 52,064.10. [^3]

Treasury yields spiked to multi-year highs on the news of the hotter inflation data. [^8] The US 30-year Treasury yield reached its highest level since 2007 after the producer price data. [^6]

Bank of America analyst Alex Cohen said in an investor note on 2026-09-10 that a strong US CPI reading due on Friday could spur a dollar relief rally, but sustained dollar strength would likely require Federal Reserve follow-through. [^4]

The read here is that the market is pricing in a reaction to inflation data, with futures markets currently showing a divergence between trader expectations and economist consensus regarding the upcoming September 15-16, 2026 Federal Reserve meeting. [^7]
