NEW YORK, June 22 — Wall Street stocks fell early today, giving back some of the prior session’s gains as markets awaited testimony from the Federal Reserve chief on inflation and monetary policy.

In prepared testimony, Fed Chief Jerome Powell said that further inflation “surprises” could come after the wave of unexpected price increases over the last year. The Senate banking committee hearing, the first of two appearances before lawmakers this week, follows yesterday’s equity market rally in the wake of the market downturn in 2022.

Among industrial sectors, petroleum-linked equities were especially weak, as oil prices fell on demand concerns and as US President Joe Biden called for a three-month halt to the federal gas tax to address soaring fuel prices.
