5 Top-Ranked Stocks Crushing The Market In June

Although worsening U.S.-China trade dispute and global growth worries are shaking the stock market now and then, Wall Street has staged a nice comeback from the May swoon on hopes of monetary easing policies.

Fed Chair Powell initially suspended the three-year monetary policy tightening program this year and has now signaled rate cuts if needed. The Fed is closely monitoring the implications of trade tensions on the economy and would act as appropriate to sustain the expansion, given a strong labor market and inflation near 2% target.

The latest weak job data and subdued inflation stirred speculation on interest rate cuts. Lower interest rates will keep borrowing cost down, thereby resulting in higher consumer spending and rise in economic activities. Further, the possibility of rate cuts has put pressure on the U.S. dollar, making the dollar-denominated products cheaper for foreign buyers and thus raising demand for American products.

Additionally, recovery in U.S. housing market, Trump’s suspension of the planned tariffs against Mexico and wave of mergers and acquisitions added to the strength. Further, the American economy is on a slower growth path buoyed by strong job growth, rising consumer confidence, and higher consumer spending.
