Good MorningEquity traders got some reassurance from the Fed on Wednesday but not enough to spur a large move. The minutes from the last FOMC meeting indicate the committee is not eager to raise interest rates stating it would be “some time” before the first hike would come. The NASDAQ led the market but only gained 0.25% at the high of the day. The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average both hovered near break-even and closed virtually unchanged for the day.
Action on Thursday could be different. Fed Chief Jerome Powell is scheduled for a speech on the state of the global economy and could give the market an additional boost. With global GDP estimates on the rise and recent labor data pointing to a solid reopening positive commentary from the FOMC Chairman could usher in another market rally with the earnings season right around the corner. Earnings growth in the Q1 period is expected to be strong and the estimates are on the rise.
