Today, Reserve Bank of Australia Governor Michele Bullock and other officials will testify before a parliamentary committee regarding economic conditions and policy directions in Canberra.

Story summary

On Thursday, U.S. stock markets rallied sharply after the Federal Reserve raised interest rates for the first time in three years to combat rising inflation. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq surged by 1.2% and 1.6% respectively, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 450 points, or about 0.9%. Meanwhile, bond yields fell as oil prices dropped for a second consecutive day; U.S. crude briefly dipped below $100 per barrel for the first time since September 11. This drop in oil prices contributed to reduced economic concerns and alleviated pressure on stocks and bonds globally. Additionally, initial claims for unemployment benefits declined to their lowest level since July, further boosting market sentiment despite potential volatility due to a short holiday week.
