Outlook 01/17: Stock futures tick higher early Friday, as traders and investors try to complete their first weekly gain of the new year.

The core consumer price index rose less than expected year on year, and the producer price index also had a smaller-than-anticipated increase for December.

There will be no Pre-Market or After Hours sessions.
