US markets closed higher; Dow lead gains

10 Mar 2015 Evaluate

The US markets closed higher on Monday, but still below record levels set last week, coincided with the six-year anniversary of a bull market, following the Financial Crisis of 2008. Richard Fisher, president of the Dallas Federal Reserve Bank stated that the US Federal Reserve should promptly end its easy monetary policy and press ahead with an interest rate hike, followed by a set of gradual moves higher. Richard Fisher shrugged off stagnate wage growth, calling it a lagging indicator, and added that the inflation will bounce back once energy prices stabilize. On the economic condition, the Federal Reserve’s labor-market conditions index slowed to 4 in February from 4.8 in January. The index combines 19 labor market indicators and is designed to give a broader view of jobs-market momentum; the median reading since 1978 is 1.1, and the median reading during this recovery is 4.3. Separately, the Conference Board's employment-trends index edged up to 127.76 from 127.62 in January, which represents a gain of 6.7% from the same month in 2014.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 138.94 points or 0.78 percent to 17,995.72, Nasdaq was up by 15.07 points or 0.31 percent to 4,942.44 while, S&P 500 gained 8.17 points or 0.39 percent to 2,079.43. 

The Indian ADRs closed in red on Monday; HDFC Bank was down by 1.22%, Infosys was down 0.41%, ICICI Bank was down by 0.38%, Dr. Reddy’s Lab was down 0.27% and Wipro was down by 0.20%.
