Inflation data showed US consumer prices remain high, with producer inflation rising to 6.5%, fueling expectations of a Federal Reserve rate hike in December. Treasury yields above 5% and upcoming retail sales and earnings reports from major companies will influence the Dow's near-term direction, with key technical support at 50,000 and resistance near 53,700.
