US stock indices closed higher yesterda. The S&P 500 rose by 0.21%, while the Nasdaq 100 gained 0.41%. The industrial Dow Jones strengthened by 0.25%.
On Tuesday, global indices continued to rise for the fifth consecutive day as optimism over US rate cuts spread to Asia and triggered a wave of buying in technology stocks. Asian markets responded to positive signals from the United States, where investors increased expectations for Federal Reserve monetary easing. The MSCI Asia Pacific index, excluding Japan, showed solid growth. The yield on 10-year Treasuries rose by 1 basis point to 4.05%. The dollar weakened, while gold hit another record high.
Particular attention was drawn to technology stocks, traditionally considered sensitive to interest rate changes. Lower rates stimulate investment in high-tech sectors, improving profitability prospects and supporting business expansion. Companies engaged in artificial intelligence, cloud technologies, and semiconductors found themselves in a favorable position. Technology firms such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. contributed to gains in Asian indices. Stocks in South Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong also jumped, while Indonesian equities declined following the resignation of the long-serving finance minister.
US futures rose after the S&P 500 held near record highs, while European contracts declined amid political turmoil in France. Recall that in France, Prime Minister Francois Bayrou received a no-confidence vote in parliament, leading to the third change of government in just over a year. The country's bond futures fell as investors anticipated the appointment of a new prime minister.
In Japan, the aftermath of Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba's resignation was felt across markets. The Nikkei 225 index hit a new intraday high on Tuesday but later slipped into negative territory during the session. Government bonds strengthened after Monday's decline, as Ishiba's decision to step down reinforced expectations of looser fiscal policy.
In the coming days, investors are likely to focus on developments in the United States. Inflation data will help clarify the trajectory of interest rates not only for the Fed but also for Asian central banks, including the People's Bank of China. Ahead of next week's Fed meeting, the core consumer price index is expected to show a 0.3% increase in August on Thursday, marking the second consecutive month of gains.
Oil prices rose for the second straight day as investors assessed the potential demand impact after Saudi Arabia cut prices on most of its crude grades. Iron ore advanced for the sixth consecutive session, approaching its highest close in more than six months amid expectations of stronger demand from China.
As for the technical picture of the S&P 500, the main task for buyers today will be to break through the nearest resistance level of $6,505. This would allow for further upside and open the way toward the next level at $6,520. An equally important objective for bulls will be to keep control over the $6,540 mark, which would strengthen buyers' positions. In case of a downside move amid weakening risk appetite, buyers will need to step in around $6,490. A break below this level would quickly push the instrument back to $6,473 and open the road toward $6,457.
