Dow Jones, S&P 500, Nasdaq: Mixed price developments on Wall Street
Important economic data help the US stock market in some parts to a trend reversal. However, interest rate expectations remain constant: investors expect another rate hike by the Fed.
US stock market indexes are showing mixed results on Wednesday. The Dow Jones is down 0.4% at 51,160 points, while the S&P 500 is up 0.4% at 7,700 points and the Nasdaq is up 0.8% at 27,020 points. The US Commerce Department released the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, which remained at 3.4% in August, unchanged from the previous two months.
This figure is a key inflation measure for the Federal Reserve. Several Fed speakers are set to make comments throughout the week, and the US government's jobs report is due on Friday.
