Regional banks recover

BY Janne Muta

|जून 7, 2023

Major US indices gained modestly yesterday with S&P 500 (0.33%) and Nasdaq Composite (0.36%) reaching fresh closing highs for the year. Financial stocks led the market, with regional banks recovering from a previous selloff. The rally this year has been driven primarily by mega-cap technology stocks, resulting in a strong performance for the S&P 500. Information technology, communication services, and consumer discretionary sectors have been particularly contributing to the rally recently.

Small-cap stocks have lagged behind since March but showed now some signs of life. Russell 2000 gained 2.68% as the index broke out of a base formation. If the rally lasts it supports the bullish market sentiment. All in all, investors were cautious ahead of the Federal Reserve’s upcoming meeting and the release of the May consumer-price index.

The DJ (0.07%) and NAS (0.12%) both increased marginally while DAX (0.56%) and FTSE (0.72%) moved higher a bit more decisively. USOIL (-0.67%) declined as Chinese data pressured the market. Gold (0.08%) remained practically unchanged. China’s trade data for May, showing a larger-than-expected drop in exports, could lead to speculation of policy stimulus measures from Beijing.
