Reuters•1 hour agoWorld shares fall as China stimulus worries offset upbeat Credit Suisse earnings
World shares took a step back on Wednesday as signals that China has put broader stimulus on hold offset positive results from Credit Suisse, which kicked off the earnings season for European investment banks. European shares followed Asia lower, pulling back from eight-month highs, with the pan-regional STOXX 600 index slipping 0.4 percent. "The big picture is the tussle between Asia, which has pulled back, and America, where the markets made new highs, so Europe is probably going to be a bit torn between the two," said Andrew Milligan, head of global strategy at Aberdeen Standard Investments.
Bloomberg•2 hours agoStocks Struggle to Sustain Momentum; Dollar Climbs: Markets Wrap
European stocks followed Asian shares lower, while U.S. equity benchmarks pointed to a softer open in the wake of Tuesday’s record close. Losses for raw-material producers threatened to end the longest run of gains since October 2017 for the Stoxx Europe 600 Index, with banks drifting lower despite positive earnings from Credit Suisse. The buoyancy that took U.S. stocks to record highs appears to have triggered some soul-searching among investors, with positive earnings surprises in Europe failing to erase lingering concerns about the region’s economic outlook.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq just closed at records, ending a monthslong drought
The S&P 500 index and the Nasdaq Composite on Tuesday finished in record territory, notching all-time highs for the first time since fall and late summer, powered by gains in health-care and the consumer-discretionary sectors. The S&P 500 index finished up 0.9%, or 26 points, at 2,934 (on a preliminary basis), above its closing high at 2,930.75 put in on Sept. 20. The health-care sector, as reflected in the Health Care Select Sector SPDR ETF , rose about 1.6% on Tuesday. Consumer-discretionary shares, as gauged by the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR ETF , climbed 1%. The Nasdaq Composite Index finished up 1.3% at 8,120, closing above its Aug. 29 all-time closing high at 8,109.69. Meanwhile, the Dow Jones Industrial Average notched a 0.6% gain to end at 26,656, just off its Oct. 3 record at 26,828.39. The three main benchmarks have mounted a steady ascent since putting in their lows on Dec. 24, when equity indexes suffered heavy losses during a bruising fourth-quarter selloff that dragged the Nasdaq into bear-market territory, defined as a decline of at least 20% from a recent peak, and left the S&P 500 on the edge of ending its longest bull run ever. Strong earnings reports have to fuel Tuesday's advance, as shares of social-networking platform Twitter Inc. , and aerospace giant Lockheed Martin Corp. and United Technologies Corp. rallied after quarterly results on the session.
