Investors can breathe a sigh of relief as October inflation data met economists&#8217; expectations, though the annual headline rate showed a slight uptick <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41938762/october-inflation-rate-rises-to-2-6-as-expected-december-interest-rate-cut-remains-uncertain">from the previous month.</a>
As anticipated, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 2.6% year-over-year in October, marking an increase from September's 2.4% but snapping six straight months of declines.
Excluding food and energy, core inflation held steady at 3.3% for the third consecutive month, highlighting some stickiness in underlying price pressures that remain above the Fed&#8217;s 2% target.
In response to the data, speculators raised their expectations for an interest-rate cut, with increased bets on a 25-basis-point reduction in December. Market-implied probabilities now indicate a 79% likelihood of a December rate cut, up from 58% before the CPI report, as per the CME FedWatch tool.
Following the release, Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari expressed optimism about inflation&#8217;s trajectory, stating on Bloomberg TV, &#8220;I have confidence inflation is headed in the right direction.&#8221; 
On Tuesday, Kashkari had flagged the risk of a rate pause in December if inflation data <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/24/11/41919011/feds-kashkari-warns-of-december-interest-rate-pause-risk-surprises-to-the-upside">surprises to the upside. </a>
&#8220;I am not yet seeing a lot of upside inflation risks; the bigger risk is getting stuck,&#8221; he added on Wednesday. 
Markets reacted positively, with U.S. equity futures slightly rising, while Treasury yields and the dollar eased amid increased rate-cut expectations.

Warner Bros.

EPS of 5 cents beat the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate loss of 9 cents</a>. Net income was $135 million versus a loss of 417 million year-over-year. The stock gained after the print.

The company reported an adjusted EBITDA of $2.41 billion, an 18% ex-FX decline.
Studios&nbsp;revenues&nbsp;were $2.68 billion, down 17% ex-FX Y/Y on a pro forma combined basis. Content revenue decreased by 18% due to the decline in theatrical and game revenue.&nbsp;
Theatrical revenue decreased 40% ex-FX as the performance of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice and Twisters in the current year was more than offset by the more robust performance of Barbie in the prior year.
Games revenue declined 31% ex-FX, primarily driven by the better performance of the previous year&#8217;s slate, mainly Mortal Kombat 1.
Networks&nbsp;revenues&nbsp;were $5.01 billion, up by 3% ex-FX, on a pro forma combined basis.&nbsp;The AT&amp;T SportsNet exit negatively impacted the growth rate by 200 bps. Distribution revenue decreased 7% ex-FX, primarily driven by declines in U.S. pay-TV subscribers.&nbsp;
Advertising revenue fell 13% ex-FX, primarily driven by audience declines in domestic general entertainment and news networks and soft advertising markets, mainly in the U.S., partially offset by the broadcast of the Olympics in Europe in the current year.
DTC revenues were $2.63 billion, up 9% ex-FX Y/Y on a pro forma combined basis. Distribution revenue increased by 8% ex-FX, primarily driven by a 15% increase in subscribers and higher pricing following the launch of Max in Latin America and Europe during the first half of 2024.
Advertising revenue increased 51% ex-FX, primarily driven by increased domestic ad-lite subscribers.
Total DTC subscribers increased to 110.5 million from 95.9 million a year ago. Global DTC ARPU was $7.84, a 1% ex-FX increase from the prior year.
As of September 30, 2024, WBD generated $0.8 billion in operating cash flow and held $3.5 billion in cash and equivalents.&nbsp;
Warner Bros. Discovery&#8217;s rapid international growth and sustained investment in diverse, high-quality content fueled momentum in its global Direct-to-Consumer segment this quarter, CEO David Zaslav noted.
Max added 7.2 million new subscribers—the platform&#8217;s highest quarterly growth since launch—boosting subscriber-related revenue and advancing its 2025 financial goals for this segment.
Additionally, Zaslav added that its new partnership with Charter Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHTR#NASDAQ">CHTR</a>) for both linear network distribution and Max bundling reaffirms the strength of its content portfolio.
At the conference call, Warner Bros said it would launch max streaming service in seven Southeast Asian markets, and will launch in Australia next year. The company also said it has &#8220;A Fair Amount Of Room&#8221; to raise prices on the max service.
Price Action: WBD stock is up 10.30% at $9.24 premarket at&nbsp;the last check Thursday.
