Market Close 24 May 24: US drags Aussie share market lower

Wall Street declined as stronger-than-expected economic data raised concerns about prolonged high interest rates, with the S&P; 500, Dow Jones, and NASDAQ all falling. Market volatility continues as investors react daily to new data, particularly the US Purchasing Managers Index showing the highest business activity in over two years, potentially increasing inflation. Rising US bond yields and a repricing of rate futures reflect expectations of limited rate cuts in late 2024. Sector-specific news saw Boeing's negative forecast impact the Dow, while Nvidia's strong performance buoyed tech stocks.

Join Tom and Ryan as they break the news on the highly anticipated earnings results of Nvidia released just minutes ago.

Target was the big looser of the night, as well as outlooks for two rate cuts this year, with analysts projecting just one on the horizon this year.
