After yesterday's sharp declines, today's Wall Street opening brings a slight recovery. The main spot indices are gaining 0.60-0.70%, and futures on these indices are rebounding by over 2.00% due to contract rollovers. The dollar is slightly weakening but remains significantly above yesterday's pre-FOMC conference levels. Meanwhile, U.S. bond yields continue to rise. The strong upward trend is particularly evident in 10-year yields, which are approaching 4.56%.
US500
The US500 index lost nearly 3.00% after yesterday's Federal Reserve decision, marking its biggest one-day loss since August this year following the release of NFP data. The chart shows a precarious ascending triangle technical pattern, which typically signals a trend reversal. Yesterday's strong breakout below the lower support line may potentially indicate such a scenario is materializing. If this is the case, continued selling pressure should be expected. On the other hand, bulls are making an effort to defend the support level above 5930 points.
