On August 27th, Federal Reserve official Hammark reiterated that now is the time for officials to take action to curb inflation. She stated that current interest rates are not having a strong enough cooling effect on the economy to allow price pressures to subside on their own. She said, "I think the appropriate approach now is to maintain a certain level of restraint to help inflation fall back to our target level. The longer inflation remains above our target, the harder it will be to bring it down." Hammark was one of three dissenting officials at last months policy meeting, favoring a 25-basis-point rate hike. She said, "In my view, the real problem with inflation deviating from our target for an extended period is that the public may be starting to develop an inflationary mentality." She added that she hasnt seen this yet, but conversations with some people have made her concerned. Hammark also stated that the performance of capital markets indicates that current interest rates are not putting sufficient pressure on credit or economic growth. She said, "Weve seen trillions of dollars in IPOs and record-breaking debt issuances. From my perspective, this doesnt look like the economy is being restrained."According to the New York Times, the Trump administration will expand the number of flights to Haiti.On August 27, according to Irans Tasnim News Agency, following months of attacks by the United States, Iranian Parliament Deputy Speaker Ali Nikozadeh inspected the oil infrastructure on Kharg Island, located off the southern coast of Iran.

S&P 500 Declines The US dollar is testing new highs

As traders exit riskier assets, the S&P 500 keeps trying to settle below the support level at 3660.


A fresh high is being tested by Treasury yields. The yield on 10-year Treasuries is currently attempting to get above 3.85%. 10-year Treasuries yielded barely 2.60% at the beginning of August, so the recent upward movement was significant.


REITs are under a lot of pressure from rising Treasury yields. Ones of the S&P 500's greatest losers today is Vornado Realty, followed by Ventas, Prologis, and Kimco Realty.


The pressure on energy stocks has increased as WTI oil tested new lows. In today's trading session, Baker Hughes, Hess, and Halliburton are all down more than 3%.


Today, some tech stocks are attempting to recover, including Apple and Amazon. Other tech equities, which have been sluggish lately, are still falling. NVIDIA and Meta are reaching fresh lows.


It should be mentioned that a strong currency also acts as a deterrent for American stocks by raising the cost of investing for foreigners. The U.S. Dollar Index recently tested highs last seen in 2002. The worldwide flight to safety, which is negative for riskier assets like stocks, is highlighted by the dollar's surge.
