Why did the US stock market rebound on Thursday? The hope of a soft landing, the trading characteristics of Powell, and the catalyst of zero-date options.
Unemployment data strengthens confidence in a soft landing; the market's immediate trend after the Federal Reserve announces interest rate cuts is often unstable and irrational; since Powell took office, the stock market usually declines in the last hour of Federal Reserve decision days; market maker funds flow analysis shows that on Thursday, the S&P was supported at 5700 points, driven mainly by zero-date options 0DTE positions.
“Recalibrating” interest rate cuts sparked a frenzy in US stocks, and the Dow broke the 42,000 mark for the first time

Yellen praised the interest rate cut as a "positive sign" for the US economy, emphasizing that the primary task is to ensure that the job market "remains strong"; Summers, the former US Treasury Secretary and whistleblower on high inflation, said that the future interest rate cut is expected to be less than the Federal Reserve's forecast.
Replicating the 'soft landing of reduced interest rates' in 1995, is Powell going to be like Greenspan?
Considering the current economic and interest rate environment and the fundamental differences compared to previous years, if the Federal Reserve also wants to lead the economy to achieve a soft landing, they must accelerate their pace.
