). Target shares surged 19.4% after the big-box retailer raised its annual earnings forecast. Lowe’s shares climbed 10.3% after the home-improvement chain beat profit estimates.
Minutes from the Fed’s policy-setting meeting on July 30-31, when the Fed cut rates by 25 basis points, showed that policymakers debated cutting interest rates more aggressively. Some participants preferred a 50-basis-point cut, but the committee was united in wanting to avoid the appearance of being on a path to further rate cuts.
Stocks briefly pared gains following the release of the minutes at 2 p.m. ET , but then returned to their levels prior to the release. “The stocks still want to see any evidence that the Fed is going to cut rates,” said Willie Delwiche, investment strategist at Baird in Milwaukee. “I don’t think there’s anything in here that would be an ‘aha!’ warning sign to stocks that they’re not going to get another rate cut.” he said. “But I also think that the longer-term picture of where the market sees rates ending up and where the Fed sees rates ending up might be different right now, and that’s going to have to get resolved at some point.”
