Dozing through this perspective, the New York stock Exchange has yet made in the face of “news items,” said Mr. Lynch, the judging on the whole favorable.
investors have been made aware of good indicators, including a jump in orders for durable goods last month and a net increase in the morale of households this month.
of Course, they have also digested a rise in weekly jobless claims and a decline in sales of new homes for October, but have seemed to put into perspective of statistics, which did not appear as a reversal of positive trends.
Finally, “the minutes of the federal Reserve (Fed) have been published and (…) suggest that consensus reigns on a rate increase at its December meeting,” said Mr. Lynch, with reference to the minutes of the previous meeting of the central bank.
This idea has nothing to surprise investors who are optimistic now most of this perspective, in particular since the election of Donald Trump to the american presidency.
Not only the intentions of the stimulus of Mr. Trump seem to leave the Fed the scope to tighten more quickly the policy face the risk of inflation, but they have played a large role in the last two weeks to boost Wall Street to records.
