market traded sharply lower on Wednesday, tracking overnight losses on Wall Street as renewed US-Iran hostilities pushed
crude oil prices higher and heightened concerns over inflation, interest rates and global growth. Wall Street extended
its decline on Tuesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling 418.97 points, or 0.79%, to 52,766.93. The S&P
500 declined 54.67 points, or 0.71%, to 7,631.47, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 271.11 points, or 1.03%, to
26,099.77. The selloff followed a sharp rise in oil prices after renewed military action between the US and Iran raised
concerns over supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude rose to around $95 a barrel on Wednesday, its
highest level in five weeks, after gaining for a second consecutive session. Higher energy prices have intensified
inflation concerns and contributed to a global bond selloff. The US 10-year Treasury yield climbed to around 4.80%,
while Japan's 10-year government bond yield approached 3%, adding to pressure on equity valuations. Markets are
also reassessing the Federal Reserve's interest-rate outlook. The probability of a 25-basis-point rate hike at the
Fed's 16 September meeting has risen to about 67%, compared with 39.6% a week earlier, following hawkish comments
from Fed officials. US economic data released overnight presented a mixed picture. The ISM Manufacturing PMI eased to
54.6 in August from 55.6 in July, indicating that manufacturing activity continued to expand, but at a slower pace. The
New Orders Index declined to 53.7 from 56.7, while the Employment Index fell to 51.2 from 52.8. The Prices Index
remained elevated at 71.1, pointing to continued input-cost pressures. The US labour market remained relatively
resilient, with JOLTS job openings rising by 89,000 to 7.271 million in July. However, hiring fell by 278,000 to 5.054
million, while the hires rate declined to 3.2%, suggesting some moderation in labour-market momentum despite continued
demand for workers. US construction spending also weakened, falling 0.5% in July to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of
$2.158 trillion. The decline added to signs of softer activity in parts of the US economy. Investors will now track
upcoming US labour-market data, including the nonfarm payrolls report due Friday, for further clues on the Federal
Reserve's policy path. The combination of elevated oil prices, persistent price pressures and signs of softer
economic activity is likely to keep markets volatile.Powered by Capital Market - Live NewsDisclaimer: No Business
