Today's Research Reports on Trending Tickers: Intercept Pharmaceuticals and Amicus Therapeutics
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 29, 2018 / Wall Street closed up on Wednesday as dovish comments made by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell boosted investor optimism. According to the Chairman, Jerome Powell, “Interest rates are still low by historical standards, and they remain just below the broad range of estimates of the level that would be neutral for the economy — that is, neither speeding up nor slowing down growth.” The Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 2.5 percent to close at 25,366.43, while the S&P 500 Index jumped 2.3 percent to close at 2,743.79. The Nasdaq Composite Index advanced 2.95 percent higher to close at 7,291.59.
The managing partner for Harris Financial Group, Jamie Cox said, “He calmed the nerves of investors worried about policy overshoot and retained all the flexibility [he] had before he started talking,” he said. “Markets wanted to hear Powell say that there is no preset course of rates, that he is mindful of weaknesses in the global economy, and, most importantly, that tariffs have altered the calculus of the future of the U.S. economy,” Cox said.
