Stocks end lower as Fed lifts rates, pencils in 2 more increases in 2018

U.S. stock benchmarks gave up earlier gains and closed lower on Wednesday as the Federal Reserve raised benchmark interest rates by a quarter of a percentage point, as expected, and signaled that the domestic economic growth outlook warranted a more aggressive rate-hike path than investors had anticipated. The S&P 500 fell 11.22 points, or 0.4%, to 2,775.63. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 119.60 points, or 0.5%, to 25,201.13. The Nasdaq Composite Index , which earlier set an intraday record at 7.748.96, turned lower to close 8.09 points, or 0.1%, lower at 7,695.70. Among the biggest losers on the S&P 500, H&R Block Inc. plunged 18%.

Stock market cuts loss as Fed's Powell says central bank 'not ready to declare victory' on inflation

The stock market cut some of its modest losses Wednesday afternoon as the Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, adopted a measured tone in explaining the central bank's second interest-rate increase of 2018 during a news conference.. Powell said that the Fed doesn't "want to declare victory" on inflation, which has begun to normalize toward policy makers' 2% annual target after stubbornly holding lower for a protracted period and even as employment levels hit historic lows. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was off 41 points, or 0.2%, at 25,282, the S&P 500 index declined by 6 points, or 0.2%, at 2,781, while the Nasdaq Composite Index was trading about 0.1% lower at 7,698. The policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee lifted interest rates by a quarter of percentage point to a range of 1.75% to 2% and a projection of Fed members' expectations for interest rates in the future were seen shifting to four from three for 2018, meaning a further two hikes could be expected this year. During the news conference Powell said the economy is healthy and indicated that the Fed took "another step in gradually" normalizing monetary policy since the beginning of the 2007-09 financial crisis but didn't want to move too quickly or too slowly in returning to a normal level of interest rates. Powell also said that going forward all Fed meetings will be accompanied by a news conference.

Big bank stocks extend gains after Fed rate hike

Financial stocks added to gains in afternoon trade Wednesday, after the Federal Reserve nudged up its target range for the fed funds rate by 0.25 percentage points (25 basis points) to 1.75% to 2.00%, as widely expected. The SPDR Financial Select Sector ETF rose 0.4% after the rate hike, after being up less than 0.1% just before the move. Among shares of the financial ETF's (XLF) most heavily weighted components, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. went to a gain of 0.5% from a gain of 0.1%; Bank of America Corp. rose 0.9%, after being up 0.4% pre-Fed; Citigroup Inc. went to up 0.7% from up 0.3%; Goldman Sachs Group Inc. climbed 1.6%, after being up 1.1% pre-Fed; Wells Fargo & Co.'s stock went up 0.2% to up 0.7%. Higher interest rates can help boost bank profits, as they can increase the spread banks earn between longer-term assets, like loans, and shorter-term liabilities. Meanwhile, the yield on the 10-year Treasury note inched lower to 2.952% from 2.954% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average moved to down 48 points from down 26 points.
