Why are U.S. stocks falling?
U.S. stocks have declined over consecutive days and have recorded their lowest August performance in seven years
Many experts say the reason for this is that investors are worried about the Federal Reserve increasing interest rates.
The Philadelphia semiconductor index lost 1.15% after Seagate fell 3.54%.
Part of why this is happening is the stock selling pressure on investors.
And that’s been prompted by the idea of a prolonged monetary policy.
Reuters quoted Tim Ghriskey from Ingalls and Synder in New York saying “All (Powell) cares about is getting inflation down and raising rates to do that, and in terms of how aggressive to be that is all to be determined from the data”.
And others have criticised Powell’s stance
But some experts do believe that it will soon get better as inflation comes under control in the U.S.
And the Fed maintains that in the long term the benefits outweigh the risks.
