- Dow futures rallied 600 points in pre-bell trading, boosted by declining oil prices and bond yields as traders attempted to recover from a Fed-driven sell-off.
- Federal Reserve was the trigger for the prior session's selling, with investors across markets now parsing the central bank's rate hike decision and forward outlook guidance for the rebound's durability.
Why it matters: The 600-point Dow futures jump, driven by falling oil and yields rather than a Fed dovish pivot, suggests traders are treating the rate hike and guidance as fully priced in and are now positioning for relief in rate-sensitive sectors when regular trading resumes.
