Global Markets React to Fed's Outlook and Economic Data

Reported 7 months ago

US Stocks were mixed and Treasury yields fell as investors processed softer-than-expected data alongside the Federal Reserve's less dovish stance. While the S&P 500 and Nasdaq were on track for record highs, the Dow saw a slight dip. The producer price index came in below estimates, while jobless claims hit a 10-month high. Despite a hawkish Fed tone, markets anticipate a rate cut later this year. European and Asian stocks reacted to tariff concerns and softer economic data, with European shares closing lower.
