Stock Market Weekly Update - September 27, 2021
- September 27, 2021
Investors rode a bumpy ride, opening last week lower only to rebound later but not enough to avoid a third consecutive weekly dip. Only the Nasdaq was able to avoid closing the week in the red, but barely. The Dow and the Global Dow fell nearly 1.0%, while the S&P 500 and the Russell 2000 declined more than 0.8%. Traders were able to overcome concerns early in the week of the possible financial collapse of a major Chinese property developer, only to learn last Friday that Chinese regulators will now consider crypto-related transactions illicit financial activity.
Following its meeting earlier in the week, the Federal Open Market Committee decided to maintain the target range for the federal funds rate at its current 0.00%-0.25%. The Committee also agreed to continue to increase its holdings of Treasury securities and agency mortgage-backed securities.
