The ASX200 is set to trade in the red today with the upcoming US inflation read causing some jitters overnight.
ASX200 futures were down -0.15% near 8.30am AEDT on Thursday as the S&P500 finished down -0.17% and the NASDAQ -0.55%.
By tomorrow, Australia will have the US PCE inflation gauge to consider.
Yesterday we saw an ambivalent Australian CPI read push the ASX200 in a different direction than what futures and the US markets would otherwise indicate.
Could a shock PCE read mess with the current rally?
