Interest rate meeting
Last week was characterized by results from many of the large technology companies.
Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta and Tesla all presented quarterly figures last week.
On Wednesday this week, the US central bank, the Fed, will hold an interest rate meeting, and there is great excitement about what central bank chief Jerome Powell will signal about interest rate cuts.
– At the start of the year, the whole picture was an expectation and belief in interest rate cuts in the USA. This also drove the stock market. Now it will be exciting to follow the Nonfarm figures coming this week. They will drive this further. I have faith in interest rate cuts in the US this year, said Chief Economist Jan Ludvig Andreassen at Eika Gruppen to E24 yesterday.
The jobs figures for the US, or nonfarm payrolls, are often referred to as the most important figure of the month.
