Your lookahead horoscope: February 22, 2026

Wall Street Seeks First Gains of 2024 in Modest Pre-Market Trading

 

Wall Street is seeking its first gains of 2024, with the benchmark S&P 500 index ticking modestly higher in premarket trading on Thursday. The index has fallen in four of the past five sessions, as investors have grown increasingly cautious about the U.S. central bank’s expected pivot to rate cuts this year and how quickly these might be implemented. While the Fed is widely expected to keep rates on hold in January, traders have priced in a 67% chance of a 25 basis point rate cut in March, as per CMEGroup’s FedWatch tool. The Toronto Stock Exchange’s S&P/TSX composite index ended down 53.56 points, or 0.3%, at 20,818.58 on Wednesday.
