The PPI rose 0.2% month-on-month in December, falling short of the expected 0.3% increase. This data provided some relief to investors concerned about persistent inflation, but market participants remain cautious ahead of the Consumer Price Index (<a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock\/?stock=CPI\">CPI<\/a>) report due on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><b>Economists anticipate the CPI to show a year-on-year inflation rate of 2.9% in December, up from 2.7% in November.<\/b> This upcoming report is crucial as it could significantly impact the Federal Reserve&#8217;s decisions on interest rate policy in the coming months.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Treasury_Yields_and_Rate_Cut_Expectations\"><\/span>Treasury Yields and Rate Cut Expectations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The 10-year Treasury yield dipped slightly to 4.790%, retreating from its 14-month high of 4.805% reached overnight. Despite this minor pullback, yields remain elevated, reflecting ongoing uncertainty about the Federal Reserve&#8217;s monetary policy trajectory. Traders have scaled back expectations for interest rate cuts in 2025, now anticipating approximately 27.5 basis points of easing by year-end.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sector_Performance_and_Notable_Stocks\"><\/span>Sector Performance and Notable Stocks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Energy, healthcare, and materials sectors outperformed, while technology stocks faced pressure.

Apple (<a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/stock\/?stock=AAPL\">AAPL<\/a>): Declined 1.72% following reports of decreased iPhone sales and market share in Q4 2024.<br \/>4.
