Dow Jones, S&P 500, Nasdaq: „Nvidia hält die Party am Laufen. Aber die Musik spielt jetzt in Jackson Hole" – Wall Street notiert uneinheitlich

Investors are waiting for this week's next market highlight on Wall Street. The major indices remain largely unchanged, with the Nasdaq showing a slight gain. The Dow Jones stands at 53,464 points, the S&P 500 increases by 0.4% to 7,711 points, and the Nasdaq climbs more than 1% to 26,426 points. The Nasdaq 100, which includes the 100 largest non-financial companies, is up 0.8% at 29,345 points.

Investors are focusing on the bank forum in Jackson Hole, which begins on Thursday and features the theme "Financial Innovation." This year's three-day meeting is led by US Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh, who will speak on Friday about economic issues in the face of high inflation and a recently downsized US labor market. Warsh plans to deliver a more concise message and communicate fewer views on monetary policy compared to his predecessors.

Investors are expected to pay close attention and try to glean clues about the September interest rate decision from his speech. Meanwhile, the number of initial jobless claims in the US has dropped to 203,000, below economists' expectations. The labor market remains strong, despite a weak July jobs report. Inflation, however, remains elevated.
