Market Update – August 28 – Higher for Longer

[ad_1]

China bourses rallied after China announced support for equities markets; Beijing lowered stamp duty on stock traders for the first time the 2008 financial crisis and at the same time pledged to slow the pace of initial public offerings in an effort to boost investor confidence. Fed Chair Powell signalled caution on additional rate hikes. Stocks & US Dollar rallied while the 10-year Treasury yield is down -2.2 bp at 4.21%. However, entering the final week of August, the US100, US500, and US30 were all in the red over the last month.

Jackson Hole Symposium: did not reveal anything new or provide fresh insight on the policy paths. Fed’s Powell, ECB’s Lagarde, and BoE’s Broadbent stressed their commitment to bringing inflation down. That stance will warrant keeping rates restrictive for some time, if not call for additional rate hikes down the road. However, Powell noted the Fed’s approach would be careful and patient, while Lagarde said the ECB would be deliberate and decisive. In contrast, the BoJ’s Ueda said below-target inflation will keep the accommodative stance in place there.
