S&P 500 Nears Record High, Metals Shine Amid Dollar Dip The S&P 500 is inching towards a record high, accompanied by rises in the Dow Jones Industrial Average and Nasdaq Composite. This growth occurs alongside a decrease in Treasury yields. Metal prices are on the rise as the U.S. dollar weakens, despite robust U.S. retail sales and reduced expectations of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. Key metals like copper, aluminum, nickel, and zinc are all seeing price increases, with copper at $8,361.50 per metric ton and aluminum at $2,177 a ton. Gold also climbed 0.4% to $2,029.60 per troy ounce. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Opinion: Cutting interest rates is misguided – the easy money would only fuel inflation READ MORE Nasdaq and S&P 500 Continue to Climb, Celebrating Stellar February READ MORE US debt could balloon past the point of no return in 20 years.
