U.S. stock indexes were falling on Wednesday morning as Treasury bond yields remained near fresh 16-year highs, while investors digested more corporate results as the third-quarter earnings reporting season got under way in earnest, but geopolitical angst still hit market sentiment amid the escalation of violence in the Middle East.
However, investor sentiment has been soured after reports saying hundreds had died following an explosion at a Gazan hospital raised fears that the Israel-Hamas war would draw in other forces in the region.Recent hopes that a trip by U.S. President Joe Biden to the Middle East might boost diplomacy have been damped after Jordan cancelled a summit at which Biden was to meet the Jordanian and Egyptian leaders, as well as Mahmoud Abbas, President of the Palestinian Authority.
Previous upsurges in geopolitical anxiety have seen a rush to perceived haven assets such as U.S. Treasurys, pushing down yields.
