  • Stocks close up on bank bounce, Fed takes focus

    STORY: Wall Street closed sharply higher on Tuesday as fears of a banking crisis abated, and investors turned their focus to the Federal Reserve.The Dow gained 1%, the S&P 500 climbed 1.3% and the Nasdaq jumped 1.6%.Much has changed since Fed policy makers last met: A one-two punch of regional bank failures, the rescue of First Republic Bank and the takeover of Credit Suisse.Now, Fed Chair Jerome Powell and team will have to balance fears of more damage to the banking sector with their original mission—to defeat inflation.And while markets have priced in an overwhelming likelihood of a 25 basis-point rate hike, Christian Ledoux, director of individual securities at CAPTRUST, says a pause in rate hikes should also be on the table.“The reality is, is that the banking situation is actually disinflationary, as banks are going to be responding to this by loaning less and being a little bit more conservative. So that may play into the Fed's ability to pause, in the short run, and thus maybe is a catalyst for stocks to go higher."
