Major U.S. equity indices experienced a slight dip on Thursday, following a higher-than-anticipated Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation report for September and a surge in oil prices due to disruptions caused by Hurricane Milton and escalating tensions in the Middle East.
The S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 all mirrored the decline falling 0.2%, 0.1%, and 0.05% respectively.

Uber Technologies Inc. UBER saw a marginal rise of 0.06% to close at $77.92.
