Good Morning!U.S. stock futures declined on Thursday as the possibility of the Federal Reserve maintaining higher interest rates for a longer period of time dampened investor sentiment. The minutes from the Federal Reserve's December meeting showed that all officials are committed to addressing inflation and believe that higher interest rates will be necessary until inflation subsides. They stated that a restrictive policy stance would need to be maintained until there is confidence that inflation is consistently falling towards the 2% target. Additionally, the officials do not anticipate any interest rate cuts in 2023. US stock markets closed Wednesday with a gain in the major indices. The S&P 500 added 0.75% to 3853, the Nasdaq rose 0.69% and the Dow Jones increased 0.4%. Positive sentiment was demonstrated by the consumer cyclical (+2.67%) and real estate stocks (+2.27%). Energy (-0.02%) was the only sector in the red. Traders will pay close attention to the release of key data in the coming days, particularly employment reports. On Thursday, the ADP private sector employment survey for December will be released at 8:15 a.m. Eastern Time, followed by the weekly initial jobless claims data 15 minutes later. The highly anticipated December nonfarm payroll report will be released on Friday. These reports will be closely watched by traders as they provide insight into the current state of the job market and the overall economy.
