Good MorningThe Dow Jones Industrials and the S&P 500 rose to record highs and yields on longer-maturity U.S. debt fell from more than one-year highs after the Federal Reserve continued to project near-zero interest rates at least through 2023 despite rising inflation concerns. Earlier in the session, the benchmark rate jumped to 1.689%, hitting a level unseen since late January 2020. The Nasdaq turned positive as well after the Fed comments shaking off earlier losses.
Fed Chairman Jerome Powell reiterated that the central bank wants to see inflation moderately above 2% and said the recent move higher in yields wasn’t disorderly. The Fed also upgraded its outlook for unemployment and inflation in the U.S. over the next several years. The rally may continue into Thursday trading as futures contracts tied to the major U.S. stock indexes rose in the overnight session Wednesday evening.
