28.06.202217:10 Forex-elemzések és áttekintések: Stock market corrections could end in another collapse

Stocks pared gains as losses in technology shares tempered optimism with China cutting its quarantine period for travelers and giant Wall Street banks boosting their dividends. Treasury bond yields rose along with the dollar.

Economically sensitive stocks such as financial, energy and industrial ones performed better in the S&P 500. Morgan Stanley boosted bank profits after increasing payouts and announcing a share buyback of up to $20 billion. Airlines, cruise operators and casinos rallied as Beijing's actions increased optimism.

Meantime, HSBC Plc's Max Kettner said equities are still under-pricing the impact of a potential recession, with earnings and growth expectations at risk of being revised lower.

Meantime, a key set of rates that the Fed is focusing on to help judge financial conditions is still some way from levels that might prompt officials to halt their tightening plans. Inflation-adjusted US rates at the shorter end of the curve are still mired below zero even as real rates on longer-tenor securities this month surged to levels unseen since 2019.
