US markets end higher on Monday

13 Dec 2022 Evaluate

The US markets ended higher with strong gains on Monday as traders picked up stocks at somewhat reduced levels following the notable decline seen in the previous week.  Positive sentiment was also generated in reaction to a survey from the New York Federal Reserve showing inflation expectations decreased at the short, medium, and longer terms in November. The New York Fed's Survey of Consumer Expectations showed median one-, three-, and five-year-ahead inflation expectations decreased to 5.2 percent, 3.0 percent, and 2.3 percent, respectively. Meanwhile, traders continued to look ahead to the Federal Reserve's highly anticipated monetary policy decision on Wednesday.

While the Fed is widely expected to slow the pace of interest rate hikes to 50 basis points, traders have recently expressed concerns about how much further the Fed will need to raise rates in order to contain inflation. On the sectoral front, energy stocks turned in some of the market's best performances on the day, benefiting from a significant rebound by the price of crude oil. With crude for January delivery surging $2.15 to $73.17 a barrel, the Philadelphia Oil Service Index soared by 4.1 percent and the NYSE Arca Oil Index jumped by 2.7 percent. Substantial strength was also visible among transportation stocks, as reflected by the 3.0 percent surge by the Dow Jones Transportation Average.

Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 528.58 points or 1.58 percent to 34,005.04, Nasdaq rose 139.12 points or 1.26 percent to 11,143.74 and S&P 500 was up by 56.18 points or 1.43 percent to 3,990.56.
