| 0:00.0 | Market insight and analysis. You're listening to the opening bell of CNBC, Squawk on the Street. |
| 0:06.2 | Good Friday morning. Welcome to Squawk on the Street. I'm David Faber with Sarah Eisen and Mike Santoli. We're post-9 of the New York Stock Exchange. Carl and Jim have the morning off. Let's give you a look at futures. Of course, we get started with the final day of trading. You can see we are set up for, I don't know, usually I defer to somebody else to tell me even what that looks like. |
| 0:22.7 | Mike, you want to... |
| 0:23.3 | It's flattish on the S&P. day of trading. You can see we are set up for, I don't know, usually I defer to somebody else to tell |
| 0:21.5 | me even what that looks like. Mike, you want to? It's flattish on the S&P. There you go. Nasdaq has a bid, yeah. Thank. That's kind of insight we look for here at CNBC. Let's get to our roadmap this morning. It does begin with this morning's economic data. PPI did come in hotter than expected. it did further complicate perhaps that picture for future inflation. |
| 0:39.6 | Plus Nike, the latest company. It did come in hotter than expected. It did further complicate perhaps that picture for future inflation. |
| 0:39.6 | Plus, Nike, the latest company announcing job cuts slashing more than 1,600 positions. |

| 0:55.5 | 0.3% for the month of January, and I'll turn to Sarah to sort of give us the sense here. |

| 1:11.4 | the prices in the pipeline, it's business to business. It's not business to consumer, so it's before |
| 1:16.4 | the price increases that we get from corporations. We were hoping that would be lower, and it has |
| 1:22.0 | been a lot lower than CPI. Now, it is still lower overall. Year on year. It's only 0.9%. However, it's higher than |
| 1:31.6 | expected. We were expecting that number to come down. So the 0.3% headline compares to a consensus |
| 1:36.6 | that was looking for 0.1%, the core, which strips out food and energy, we know the Fed looks at, |
| 1:42.1 | 0.5% on the month. That was a lot hotter than the 1.1% expected. |
| 1:47.0 | It was all a story of services. |
| 1:49.0 | Goods are deflating in many categories. |
