Three major Wall Street indices launched today's session higher. Dow Jones gains 0.20%, while S&P 500 and Nasdaq rose 0.40% and 0.50% respectively as investors digested Fed official speeches, while the yield on benchmark 10-year Treasury note fell below the key 4% level. Moods improved  after Fed Bostic, a non-voting member in 2023, said that he still sees the central bank raising rates by another 25bp in March.
