Somehow an empty package.json was initialized in the home directory which was conflicting with it. Once I deleted that file, it started working fine.

I had the same issue today on Linux (immediately after a new global install). The empty package.json wasn't in my home dir though, it was in the parent of the dir I was in when I issued the install command.
I also solved the problem by removing this file.
