8:31 a.m. ET: Consumer prices rose for a third straight month in August

US consumer prices increased for a third consecutive month in August and by a bigger than expected margin, as inflationary trends picked up after the height of the stay-in-place orders in the US.

The Department of Labor’s consumer price index (CPI) rose 0.4% month-over-month in August to add to a 0.6% rise in July. Consensus economists had been looking for a 0.3% rise, according to Bloomberg-compiled data.

the Labor Department said Friday in its report.” data-reactid=”64″>“The monthly increase in the seasonally adjusted all items index was broad-based; a sharp rise in the used cars and trucks index was the largest factor, but the indexes for gasoline, shelter, recreation, and household furnishings and operations also contributed,” the Labor Department said Friday in its report.

The core measure of CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, rose 0.4% month-on-month and 1.7% year-on-year, also topping expectations.

7:32 a.m. ET: Peloton shares extend gains to 13% in early trading, after 4Q results top expectations

Peloton’s overnight gains extended to 13% in early trading Friday morning, as investors considered the company’s much stronger than expected fourth-quarter results and guidance.

Sales grew 16% quarter-over-quarter and 172% year-over-year, as the company’s connected fitness subscribers grew to a bigger than expected base of 1.09 million. Full-year revenue will likely be between $3.50 billion and $3.65 billion, Peloton said, or well above consensus expectations for $2.74 billion.

“Peloton reported strong F4Q20 results ahead of heightened expectations, as the extended COVID-19 recovery in the U.S. drove continued robust demand for the company’s hardware and subscription offerings. Peloton also delivered material EBITDA upside driven by revenue upside, better gross margins, and opex leverage,” Raymond James analyst Aaron Kessler said in a note. “We see continued runway for Peloton to increase its share of connected fitness spend as more products become available to more consumers at expanded price points, and see potential for continued outperformance into FY21.”
