Wall Street positive, waiting for the Fed

The US markets are above parity, on the eve of the announcement of the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan regarding rates.

Moderately upside session for Wall Street, thanks in particular to health stocks, Merck and Pfizer above all, but also to the good performances of Coca Cola, General Electric and Mc Donald's. The worst stock of the Dow Jones, which gives 0,05% to 18,129.96 points, is instead the energetic Exxon which loses more than one percentage point. The S&P 500 instead adds 0,13% to 2,141.96, trimming the gains a bit in the end.

Investors therefore appear to be optimistic on the eve of the Federal Reserve and Bank of Japan rate announcements. The market is betting on a patient central bank that should leave rates at 0,25-0,5%.
