U.S. attack on Venezuela: Gas prices, inflation and the U.S. economy

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday that U.S. forces attacked Venezuela overnight and captured President Nicolas Maduro, in Washington’s most direct intervention in Latin America since the 1989 Panama invasion. The surprise operation has put the economic spotlight on oil, a key input for U.S. gasoline prices and inflation. Reuters

Kalshi’s inflation prediction market claims to beat Wall Street — scrutiny rises

Kalshi’s inflation prediction market claims to beat Wall Street — scrutiny rises

Kalshi Inc. is stepping up efforts to turn inflation forecasts into tradable contracts, drawing a new wave of scrutiny over whether prediction-market prices belong in macroeconomic analysis. In a Bloomberg Opinion column published Friday, columnist Aaron Brown said Kalshi had publicized a study claiming more accurate inflation forecasts than Wall Street’s consensus, while leaving open key questions about the benchmark and how a single forecast is derived from market bets.

EV Stocks Today (Dec. 19, 2025): Tesla, Rivian, Lucid in Focus as Softer Inflation Lifts Rate-Cut Hopes in Premarket

EV Stocks Today (Dec. 19, 2025): Tesla, Rivian, Lucid in Focus as Softer Inflation Lifts Rate-Cut Hopes in Premarket

U.S.-listed EV stocks are heading into Friday’s session with a familiar mix of macro tailwinds and company-specific headline risk. On the supportive side: the latest inflation data came in cooler than forecasts, nudging markets toward a more dovish Federal Reserve outlook—typically a constructive setup for long-duration, high-growth names across the EV ecosystem. On the cautionary side: policy uncertainty around charging buildouts and incentives remains a live theme, while regulatory scrutiny continues to hover over “autonomy” marketing claims and range disclosures.

India’s stock market staged a broad-based rebound on Friday, December 19, 2025, with the Sensex and Nifty 50 climbing after four subdued sessions, as investors took cues from gains across Asia and an unexpectedly softer U.S. inflation print. By midday, buying was visible across most sectors, while a firmer rupee and softer crude oil prices added to sentiment—especially for rate-sensitive and import-heavy pockets of the market.

US Stock Market Today: S&P 500 and Nasdaq Rally on Cooler Inflation as Micron Reignites Tech — Nike and FedEx Report After the Bell (Updated 4:15 PM EST, Dec. 18, 2025)

Wall Street rebounded Thursday as a softer inflation update eased interest-rate pressure and a surge in semiconductor names helped revive the tech trade.

Dow Jones Today: DJIA Closes Higher on Cooler Inflation, Micron-Fueled Tech Rebound (Updated 4:15 PM EST, Dec. 18, 2025)

The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended Thursday with a modest gain, closing higher as investors weighed a softer-than-expected U.S. inflation report and a tech-led rebound powered by Micron’s upbeat outlook tied to artificial intelligence demand. The Dow’s advance was smaller than the broader market’s move, but it marked a bounce after recent weakness that had dragged major indexes toward multi-week lows. TradingView
