US markets end higher on Wednesday

29 Aug 2019 Evaluate

The US markets ended higher on Wednesday as the energy sector got a lift from higher oil prices. Oil jumped after the Energy Information Administration said US crude inventories plummeted by 10 million barrels last week, the largest drop in five weeks. Reflecting the strength in the energy sector, the Philadelphia Oil Service Index spiked by 3.6 percent, the NYSE Arca Natural Gas Index surged up by 2.4 percent and the NYSE Arca Oil Index advanced by 1.7 percent. Significant strength also emerged among transportation stocks, as reflected by the 1.8 percent jump by the Dow Jones Transportation Average. Besides, the rebound on markets also came as bond yields climbed off their worst levels of the session, although they remained negative.

Earlier in the day, the negative spread between the ten-year and two-year yields widened to its lowest level since 2007, with an inverted yield curve widely seen as an indicator that a US recession is looming. The White House has sought to downplay recession concerns, although the inverted yield curve combined with the escalating US-China trade war have generated considerable uncertainty on Wall Street. Meanwhile, the US is scheduled to impose the first stage of US tariffs on $300 billion worth of Chinese goods on September 1. China is set to respond with tariffs on US products on the same day.

Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 258.20 points or 1.00 percent to 26036.10, Nasdaq rose 29.94 points or 0.38 percent to 7856.88 and S&P 500 was up by 18.78 points or 0.65 percent to 2887.94.
