DOW JONES: NEWS & Technical Analysis
Dow Futures Rise 115 Pts; Sentiment Positive Ahead of Key CPI Release
U.S. stocks are seen opening higher Monday, continuing the positive tone seen at the end of last week ahead of the release of key inflation data which could guide the Federal Reserve’s thinking.
At 07:00 ET (11:00 GMT), the Dow Futures contract was up 115 points or 0.4%, S&P 500 Futures traded 20 points or 0.5% higher, and Nasdaq 100 Futures climbed 60 points or 0.5%.
The major equity averages started September on a strong note, snapping a three-week losing streak, with the S&P 500 closing up 3.7% in the first full week of the month, the NASDAQ Composite jumping 4.1% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbing 2.7%.
This tone is set to continue Monday, helped by news of big gains on the battlefield for Ukraine over the weekend, which raised hopes for a quick end to the war and to the destructive mutual economic blockade between the West and Russia.
That said, the overall tone remains one of caution ahead of next week’s policy-setting meeting of the Federal Reserve, which is expected to result in the U.S. central bank hiking interest rates by 75 basis points to combat inflation, for the third meeting in a row.
Ahead of this, the August inflation report is due for release on Tuesday and will be one of the last pieces of data on inflation the Fed will see ahead of its September meeting.
