Pre-Market Report – Thursday 8 October: US markets slip on Fed minutes - SPI down 53 - Firmus has gone 'Softus '- Gold and resources to fall

Published 2 weeks ago
Description

U.S. equities fell on Wednesday as pressure continued to build in the bond market, pushing Treasury yields to levels not seen in more than two decades.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 341.41 points, or 0.66%, to close at 51,179.87, while the S&P 500 shed 0.22% to end at 7,801.77. The Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.22% to settle at 27,538.69. 

Investors were spooked by the benchmark 10-year Treasury note yield reaching its highest level since April 2002 at 5.365% on Wednesday. The 30-year bond yield also hit its highest level since May 2002 at 5.732%.

SPI down 53 - Firmus being repriced? Demand has gone Softus! Resources to suffer today.
