US markets end higher on Monday

07 Nov 2023 Evaluate

The US markets ended higher on Monday as traders continued to express optimism about the outlook for interest rates. The Federal Reserve's monetary policy announcement last Wednesday combined with softer than expected jobs data last Friday has led to optimism that the central bank is done raising interest rates. However, trading activity remained somewhat subdued with a lack of major U.S. economic data keeping some traders on the sidelines. Several Fed officials, including Fed Chair Jerome Powell, are due to speak in the coming days, while traders are also likely to keep an eye on reports on the U.S. trade deficit, initial jobless claims and consumer sentiment.

On the sectoral front, most of the major sectors ended the day showing only modest moves, contributing to the lackluster close by the broader markets. Steel stocks turned in a strong performance on the day, however, with the NYSE Arca Steel Index climbing by 1.5 percent. Significant strength was also visible among pharmaceutical stocks, as reflected by the 1.4 percent gain posted by the NYSE Arca Pharmaceutical Index. On the other hand, airline stocks showed a substantial move to the downside, dragging the NYSE Arca Airline Index down by 2.8 percent. Natural gas, oil service and commercial real estate stocks also saw considerable strength, partly offsetting the strength in the aforementioned sectors.

Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 34.54 points or 0.1 percent to 34,095.86, Nasdaq surged 40.5 points or 0.3 percent to 13,518.78 and S&P 500 was up by 7.64 points or 0.18 percent to 4,365.98.
