U.S. stocks opened higher on Wednesday, after consumer prices in October rose as expected, keeping the Federal Reserve on track for gradual interest rate hikes, while a rebound in oil prices lifted energy stocks.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 101.59 points, or 0.40 percent, at the open to 25,388.08. The S&P 500 opened higher by 15.72 points, or 0.58 percent, at 2,737.90. The Nasdaq Composite gained 64.52 points, or 0.90 percent, to 7,265.39 at the opening bell.
