Story summary

The Australian sharemarket is set to decline on Wednesday, following a report showing higher-than-expected inflation in the United States. ASX futures indicate a fall of about 0.5% at the open, reversing some of Tuesday's gains. In the US, stocks fell as the S&P 500 dropped by 0.8%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 291 points or 0.6%. The Nasdaq composite also declined by 1.3%. Higher inflation pressures may lead the Federal Reserve to increase interest rates further in December, impacting global markets and making borrowing more expensive.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
