Fed’s Dovish Stance Fuels Market Surge

 


In a remarkable turn of events, the financial markets have witnessed a significant upswing following the Federal Reserve’s latest policy signals. The Dow Jones Industrial Average soared, hitting a record high and confirming its bull market status since late September 2022. Meanwhile, Canada’s primary stock index leaped to a ten-month peak, propelled by a nearly 2% increase.
