CFD Indices – Wall Street Recovered After 3 Consecutive Days of Losses.

Market News

  • U.S. shares rebounded on Thursday after falling for three consecutive days and benchmark Treasury yields dipped, as investors snapped up stocks that would benefit from an economic recovery and shrugged off worries about rising prices.
  • Some investors now worry that quickening price pressures could lead the U.S. Federal Reserve to tighten monetary policy sooner than expected, reducing its supply of cheap money that has propelled financial markets higher. However, inflation woes took a backseat.
  • Benchmark 10-year Treasury yields, which spiked 7 basis points overnight in the biggest daily rise in two months, fell by nearly 4 basis points to 1.6556% as investors took a breather.

  • Stocks in Asia-Pacific rose in Friday morning, following an overnight bounce for stocks stateside. Nikkei 225 index jumped 542 points — partially recovering from the more than 2% plunge seen on Thursday. Hang Seng index gained 265 points.
  • Oil prices dipped in the morning of Asia trading hours, with international benchmark Brent crude futures down 0.37% to $66.80 per barrel. U.S. crude futures slipped 0.28% to $63.64 per barrel.
