US Market News Digest for March 6

US stock indices rise amid easing tariff barriers

This image is no longer relevant

US stock indices closed higher, with the S&P 500, Dow Jones, and NASDAQ all up more than 1%. Investors reacted positively to the White House's decision to exempt certain regions from tariffs, which boosted interest in equities. Additional momentum came from positive service sector employment data. However, the energy sector declined due to falling oil prices. Germany announced a major fiscal plan to modernize infrastructure and increase defense spending, in contrast to the US policy of cutting government spending. This led to a sharp drop in the value of German bonds and an increase in their yield to 2.79%.

While equity markets have found support, caution persists ahead of key macroeconomic data. Volatility is on the rise, creating new opportunities for traders, particularly in the tech and financial sectors. Follow the link for details.

Investors await Fed action, S&P 500 holds near support

This image is no longer relevant

The US stock market continues to rally on the back of tariff exemptions, particularly for the automotive industry. This eases pressure on companies, but recession fears remain. Investors are closely watching the jobs report and awaiting comments from Fed Chairman Jerome Powell. Financial markets are already pricing in three potential rate cuts in 2025, instead of two, which could give the S&P 500 an additional boost.

The Fed remains a key factor that could support the stock market if the White House doesn't introduce new stimulus measures. As decisions are awaited, volatility is increasing, creating entry points for short-term trading and opportunities for long-term stock holding. Follow the link for details.

US and European futures rise, but geopolitical tensions linger

This image is no longer relevant

Futures on the S&P 500 and NASDAQ indices are on the rise amid expectations of tariff delays and monetary policy changes in Europe. The yield on 10-year US Treasuries continues to climb, surpassing 4.3%, signaling the market's repricing of risk. In Japan, the yield on 10-year bonds reached 1.5% for the first time since 2009 due to rising inflation and higher borrowing costs. European stock indices also gained, adding between 0.5% and 0.7%.

High volatility in the markets provides traders with more trading opportunities. The focus remains on US macroeconomic data, changes in monetary policy, and geopolitical developments. In times like these, it is crucial to work with favorable trading conditions: low commissions and tight spreads that help minimize costs. Follow the link for details.
