The primary narrative driving the market was the release of the <strong>February Consumer Price Index (CPI)<\/strong> report, which showed headline inflation holding at <strong>2.4% year-over-year<\/strong>. While the data met consensus expectations, persistent &quot;sticky&quot; core prices have led to concerns that the <strong>Federal Reserve<\/strong> will maintain high interest rates through the summer. This cautious outlook was reflected in <strong>Dow Futures (<a href=\"\/stock\/YM=F\">YM=F<\/a>)<\/strong>, which was down <strong>206.00 (-0.43%)<\/strong> points as geopolitical tensions in the <strong>Middle East<\/strong> further dampened investor appetite for risk.<\/p>\n<p>The index&#39;s performance was heavily weighed down by <strong>Boeing (<a href=\"\/stock\/BA\">BA<\/a>)<\/strong>, which was down <strong>-2.97%<\/strong> to <strong>$217.76<\/strong>. The aerospace giant disclosed a <strong>&quot;machining error&quot;<\/strong> involving scratched wiring on several <strong>737 Max<\/strong> aircraft, a setback that is expected to delay near-term deliveries.

Heavy equipment leader <strong>Caterpillar (<a href=\"\/stock\/CAT\">CAT<\/a>)<\/strong> was up <strong>1.78%<\/strong> to <strong>$716.68<\/strong>, signaling continued strength in domestic infrastructure.
