US markets climb as Syrian fears fade

10 Sep 2013 Evaluate

The US markets rose higher on Monday, with the S&P 500 extending its longest winning streak since July, after Secretary of State John Kerry made comments that appeared to open the door to a diplomatic alternative in Syria instead of military strikes. The rally was also supported after Chinese exports beat projections and as investors anticipated the unveiling of Apple Inc’s new iPhone models. On the economy front, growth in US consumer credit slowed for the second straight month in July, held back by a decline in a measure of credit card usage that hinted at a mood of caution among consumers. The Federal Reserve stated that consumer credit rose at a 4.4 percent annual rate in July, down from a 5 percent rate in June. Credit expanded by $10.4 billion during the month, missing expectations for a $12.5 billion gain. Credit has been expanding almost continuously since mid-2010 as the economy recovered from the 2007-09 recession, a trend that has supported economic growth by helping consumers spend more on cars and education.

Meanwhile, business forecasters maintained their rosy view of the US economy in 2014, predicting 3 percent growth by the second quarter of next year, low inflation and improving employment. The top economists surveyed by the National Association of Business Economics between August 8 and August 20 also added that there’s an 80 percent likelihood that the pickup in growth will prompt the Federal Reserve to trim its monthly $85 billion purchases of mortgage bonds and Treasury bills next year.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 140.62 points or 0.94 percent to 15,063.10, the S&P 500 was up 16.54 points or 1.00 percent to 1,671.71, while the Nasdaq added 46.17 points or 1.26 percent to 3,706.18.

Indian ADRs closed mostly in green on Monday; Infosys was up 0.93%, Tata Motors was up 0.72% and Wipro was up 0.69%. On the other hand, ICICI Bank was down 0.09% and Sterlite Industries was down 0.05%.
