USA NYITÁS: Kissé magasabban a Wall Street az infrastrukturális törvényjavaslat-szavazás előtt (Angol hír)

• US indexes near record highs
• The Senate could pass a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill today
• Weak data form the US labour market
• Kansas City Southern (KSU.US) stock jumps on report Canadian Pacific plans revised bid

Stocks were little changed on Tuesday, with the Dow Jones and S&P 500 hovering under record highs as investors await for updates regarding the $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill which is expected to be passed and then the Senate will immediately start debates on a broader and more far-reaching  $3.5 trillion proposal. Once the Senate passes the $1 trillion bill it will go to the House of Representatives. Voting will take place at around 4:00 pm BST. On the data front, non-agricultural productivity in the US fell to 2.3% q / q for Q2, with the expectation of 3.5% q / q and the previous reading at 4.3% q / q. In turn, unit labor costs increased to 1.0% q / q, with the expectation of 1.1% q / q and the previous reading - -2.8% q / q. Today's data show that the labor market in Q2 is not that strong. Productivity is growing less than expected, and labor costs are rising relatively slowly, especially since we had a low base in Q1. Nevertheless, these are not the key data in terms of the assessment of the condition of the labor market taken into account by the Fed.
