Stocks have lost their bounce after a growing chorus of Federal Reserve officials made it clear that interest rates will need to stay higher for longer.
The main U.S. stock indexes rose on Thursday as weekly jobless claims data offered fresh evidence of a softening U.S. labor market and renewed hopes that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates this year. After a sluggish open, the benchmarks pulled higher in morning trade, with megacap stocks Amazon, Microsoft and Alphabet in the lead.
World stocks edged higher on Thursday, helped by surging European stocks and a larger-than-expected rise in U.S. weekly jobless claims that buoyed interest rate cut hopes, while the dollar eased as the market awaits key inflation data next week. Two of BoE's nine rate setters, one more than in April, voted for a cut and Governor Andrew Bailey said more could be on the way than investors expect. The BoE sent a message that bets on the first cut being in August might be too conservative as it lowered its inflation forecasts for two and three years' time to 1.9% and 1.6% - below its 2% target - from its February projections of 2.3% and 1.9%.
