Stocks are up today and investors wondering why have come to the right place as we have all the details behind Wednesday’s market rally.
Recent earnings reports from companies are helping stocks stay up today. These reports have been more positive, increasing investor morale and sentiment on Wednesday.
Investors are also hoping for a revival in the financial sector. All of the major banks reported an increase in investment banking during the first quarter of 2024. This is acting as a positive catalyst for the stock market this morning, as investors hope it means good news in future reports.
All of this is despite high inflation weighing on the stock market in 2024. That includes increased interest rates. It’s also unlikely that investors will see a drop to interest rates as soon as they hoped.
Even so, stocks are rebounding today, and we’re checking on the major indices as well. Let’s get into that below!
