Stock market news today: Markets close lower with eyes on Fed's next move

US stocks extended losses to close lower on Wednesday, as investors assessed the path of interest rates after more hawkish comments from officials.

Yesterday, Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell said he foresaw benchmark interest rates climbing higher than previously thought in his first remarks since the scorching jobs report on Friday. While Mr. Powell added that he believed that disinflation may already be underway, the strength of the labor market is at odds with a market that desperately wants the central bank to ease up.

Those comments were followed by Fed governor Christopher Waller, who on Wednesday echoed similar sentiments, stating that monetary policy would need to stay tight for a few years to properly reign in inflation down to the Fed's target. New York Fed President John Williams joined the chorus, noting at an event on Wednesday hosted by The Wall Street Journal that the Fed's policy outlook was accurate and that the central bank had more work to do.
