Handelsblatt Live: US-Börsenexperte Koch: Wenig Bewegung an der Wall Street zum Wochenstart
Im Tech-Sektor hat es am Montag zwar vereinzelt gute Nachrichten gegeben, trotzdem reagieren die US-Märkte nur verhalten. Markus Koch erklärt, dass Anleger insbesondere auf die Ergebnisse der großen Einzelhandelskonzerne in dieser Woche warten.
The US Treasury Department is increasing its purchases of long-term Treasury bonds by more than double, in response to the recent surge in yields on the Treasury market. The yield on 30-year US government bonds temporarily reached its highest level in nearly 20 years, causing immediate calm in the market. Treasury bond prices rose, and yields fell significantly.
However, these purchases are not a new quantitative easing program by the Federal Reserve. Instead, the Treasury aims to improve the liquidity and functionality of the market. For Wall Street, the move is positive in the short term, as falling long-term yields ease pressure on technology and growth stocks. At the same time, the intervention highlights how nervousness currently exists regarding rising US government debt and high financing costs.
