-Caveat Lector- http://cnnfn.com/1999/10/18/news/afterbell/ The market-moving action will begin early Tuesday with the release of the Labor Department's Consumer Price Index report. According to the average estimate of analysts polled by Reuters, consumer prices likely rose at a 0.4 percent pace last month. Excluding often-volatile food and energy costs, prices probably advanced at a 0.3 percent pace, according to economists' forecasts. The report will be released at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time. Also on Tuesday, Commerce releases September's housing starts and building permits figures. Analysts polled by Reuters expect that housing starts fell to 1.64 million units from 1.68 million units in August. As for building permits, analysts polled expect the number of permits rose to 1.63 million from 1.61 million. More earnings news will also dominate the Wall Street agenda Tuesday, particularly from high-tech companies as Microsoft (MSFT), Peoplesoft (PSFT), and Xilinx (XLNX), among others, unveil their earnings. Philip Morris (MO), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), Reynolds Metals (RLM), Northwest Airlines (NWAC) and Southwest Airlines (LUV) will unveil their quarterly performances.
