In his presentation of the semiannual Monetary Policy Report to the US Congress, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell stated that inflation was on a downward trend and that they continued to reduce the balance sheet size.
Powell also emphasized that clues about the Fed’s next monetary policy steps will emerge from inflation data and that investors will follow this data closely.
Analysts stated that risk appetite increased after Powell’s statements, and technology companies in particular increased. On the other hand, developments such as the fine-imposed on Citigroup and TSMC’s revenue increase also affected the markets.
