	Description:		US equity markets logged modest gains after the December consumer inflation report largely matched economists’ expectations - Dow added +38-points or +0.11% . Global healthcare major Merck & Co Inc (down -0.58%) and biotechnology company Amgen Inc (-0.27%) capped the index’s advance. The broader S&P500 edged +0.28% higher, with Materials (up +0.95%) leading eight of the eleven primary sectors higher. Health Care (down -0.26%) was the only primary sector to close in the red. Tesla Inc gained +3.93% despite a teenager, calling himself a 19-year-old security specialist and hacker, claiming that he had hacked into the software systems of nearly two dozen Tesla electric-powered vehicles and had limited control over them. The technology-centric Nasdaq extended its rebound into a third session, settling with a +0.23% gain. The small capitalisation Russell 2000 shed -0.82%.
