NEW YORK (dpa-AFX) – The ups and downs on the US stock exchanges continued on Tuesday. While the rising capital market interest rates had weighed heavily on the share price the day before, new inflation data have now brought some relief. In March, consumer prices in the US rose a little less than feared in the core rate, which is not as susceptible to fluctuations. As a result, yields in bond trading declined somewhat while stock prices recovered.
The Dow Jones Industrial (Dow Jones 30 Industrial) rose 1.04 percent to 34,661 points in early trade. The leading index was thus able to make up for part of the losses at the start of the week. The broader S&P 500 was up 1.20 percent to 4466 points. The tech-heavy NASDAQ 100 advanced even further, up 1.80 percent to 14,242 points. Recently, however, it had suffered significantly more from the rising yields than the Dow and S&P 500./bek/he
