US market sees stocks ‘moving lower’ and interest rates ‘moving higher’

CommSec’s Tom Piotrowski says the US market saw stocks moving lower and long and short-term interest rates moving higher, thanks to an influential survey from the Institute of Supply and Management. The survey came in “quite a deal stronger” than what the market has been looking for at 54.5 per cent, said Mr Piotrowski. “Anything above 50 speaks to an expansion in the sector,” he told Sky News Australia. “Employment in particular was quite strong in this measure.” Presented by CommSec.
