Weekly Buzz: Stocks rebound, bonds tank, and the Fed stayed put
U.S. Stocks traded higher Friday after a weaker-than-expected October jobs report sent Treasury yields lower. Following a dramatic week of loss, indexes returned strong after the FOMC decided to keep rates where they were.
All three indexes are on track for their strongest weekly gains since 2022. The $Dow Jones Industrial Average(.DJI.US)$ was up 0.66%, and about 6.6% for the week.  The $S&P 500 Index(.SPX.US)$ rose nearly 1% on the day and 5.88% for the week, and the $Nasdaq Composite Index(.IXIC.US)$ climbed 1.39%, and 6.62% for the week.
Oil faced a volatile week as the Israel-Hamas conflict raged on.
Jobs data showed a marginal slowdown. Friday, we learned the unemployment rate for October rose 0.1% to 3.9%. Non-farm payrolls also came in Friday, showing the workforce added just 150k workers compared to estimates of 180k. Wage data showed a slower increase than projected, at 0.2% compared to 0.3%. The Fed decided to keep rates unchanged after the Wednesday FOMC meeting, judging job data and high yields to mean the market may have shown signs of slowing.
Treasuries rallied, with 10-year yields heading for their biggest three-day decline since the onset of the pandemic in 2020, as signs of softening U.S. labor data fueled speculation that the Federal Reserve is done hiking interest rates.
Friday, yields on 10-year bonds dropped 13 basis points to 4.5%, extending their decline since Tuesday to roughly 40 basis points after a government report showed the unemployment rate rose to an almost two-year high and wage growth was low. Bloomberg reported that over the past three decades, a move of this magnitude only occurred 10 times before this week.
“The market is increasingly confident that the Fed is done hiking,” said Tom Graff, chief investment officer at Facet, told MarketWatch.

  • SpyderCall : Way to go Moo'ers! Keep those insightful comments coming. Keep the retail army strong 💪 [undefined][undefined]

  • PassiveLearner : Thank you 🙏 @Popular on moomoo for the Points,

    Should the rate hikes finally start to stop & feds think it's time to lower the interest rates,

    The majority of the stocks in my opinion would most likely be affected positively with consumers starting to open up more on spending.

    for the affected sectors might be the financial sector as interest rates get relaxed the loan they give out have lower returns but in the longer run more people might be opening up to purchase houses which might negate the potential issue faced.


    *I'm not a financial advisor and those are just my own opinions on the weekly question [undefined]

  • ThirtyOne : Great info! Thank you

  • 102362254 : If rate hikes are finally over? Good for housing, spending, and growth stocks. Bad for banks, bonds, savers, and defensive stocks. Interest rates' impact on sectors can vary based on economic conditions and other factors.

  • pdubtimm719 : Spot on

  • Meme_Short_Queen : tech and real estate will shine eventually

  • Edward Braunhut : Maybe it’s just the end of October :)

  • Asphen : yes. over. likely to rally until the cuts start. that's when the crash will happen.

  • HuatLady : The real estate sectors will thrive well with the Fed's decision to cease rates hikes. With this move, current homeowners have to pay less on their monthly mortgage payments. Importantly, prospective homeowners or investors would be lured too, because of the relatively cheaper costs.

  • Jennifer-Lashley : The biggest benefit of the end of interest rate hikes is the stock market. In addition, real estate and credit will also see a sharp boost. I'm afraid the bond market will be sluggish, and more capital will flow into the stock market from the bond market. This is just a personal opinion and is for reference only.
