US Stocks Rebound as Fed Signals Slower Rate Cuts, Data Shows Resilient Economy

US stocks edged higher Thursday, rebounding after the previous session's rout as the Federal Reserve indicated a slower pace of easing in 2025, which data indicated a resilient economy. The US economy grew faster than previously estimated in the third quarter, driven by robust consumer spending, according to data released earlier Thursday. Gross domestic product increased at an upwardly revised 3.1% annualized rate, having been previously reported to have expanded at a 2.8% pace last quarter.

The economy grew at a 3.0% pace in the April-June quarter, and is expanding at a pace that is well above what Federal Reserve officials regard as the non-inflationary growth rate of around 1.8%. This data plays into the idea that the Federal Reserve will be slow to cut interest rates further next year. The US central bank cut interest rates by 25 basis points on Wednesday, as widely expected, but also the policymakers also indicated that they see just two more 25 bps rate cuts next year, compared with a prior forecast in September for four cuts. Inflation data showed that inflation was still a long way from its 2% target, with the targeted metric expected to end this year at 2.4% and at 2.5% next year. The prospect of interest rates remaining higher for longer than expected sent Wall Street indexes sharply lower on Wednesday, with heavy losses in the technology sector. The blue chip DJIA slumped over 1,000 points, or 2.6%, its 10th consecutive lower session, marking its longest losing streak since 1974, while the S&P 500 stock gained over 13% after the restaurant operator posted fiscal second-quarter results ahead of expectations, with sales rising 6%, while adding upbeat guidance. The stock rose 6% after the used car retailer reported third-quarter earnings and revenue that topped analyst expectations, driven by increases in unit sales and strong margins
