Morning Report 27 Aug 25: US shares rise and bond yields fall on Fed independence concerns


Listen Later

Wall Street eked out modest gains overnight, led by industrials, as Donald Trump’s renewed attacks on the Federal Reserve reignited concerns over its independence. Signet Jewellers shares jumped on news of Taylor Swift’s engagement, while Nvidia edged higher ahead of its earnings release. Apple also drew attention, setting September 9 for the launch of its new iPhone 17. In bonds, the US yield curve steepened after Trump moved to oust Fed Governor Lisa Cook. Elsewhere, oil fell 2% from a near three-week high, while back home, Aussie shares are expected to rise on Wednesday ahead of key inflation data and Woolworths’ results.
