DYAX 전담 분석
Both the US services and manufacturing PMIs maintained an expansionary phase, easing recession concerns and providing a positive signal for corporate earnings. American Express's (AXP) Q3 EPS of $5.42 beating expectations also proves consumer resilience.
As economic indicators remained within the expected range, the direct impact on the Federal Reserve's rate policy path is limited, but attention should be paid to volatility stemming from underlying inflation indicators. Investors should respond by closely monitoring the upcoming ISM Services Index and employment data.
