U.S. Stock Market Reflects Downward Volatility, HK Stocks Opened Lower Again

2022-04-08 | Global Stock Markets ,Securities

U.S. Stocks 

Fundamental Analysis: 

The U.S. Federal Reserve Board released the minutes of its March monetary policy meeting. The minutes show that as U.S. inflation continues to be high, Fed officials, as a whole, agreed that interest rate hikes and tapering should be synchronized in the coming months.

Among them, the rate and speed of interest rate hikes may be much higher than in the past, and may reach 50 basis points several times. At the same time, the Fed is expected to start reducing its balance sheet in May, the size of up to $ 95 billion per month.

In this regard, the unprecedented scale and extremely hawkish monetary policy are likely to trigger a market reaction beyond expectations and lead the economy into a recession. As a result, leading to the U.S. stock market reflects a pattern of downward volatility.
