- Wall Street opens higher
- Strong ISM data curbs some gains
- Bond yields are trading lower
- The dollar remains mostly unchanged
Markets in the US opened with a positive outlook. The US500 was up nearly 0.30% at the open, while the US100 gained 0.80%. Gains were briefly limited after the release of stronger-than-expected ISM data. However, the response was somewhat muted due to weaker data from the price sub-index, which is particularly important in the context of ongoing inflationary pressure. As a result, the reaction to the report was short-lived, and indices continued to rise at the time of publication.
