▸ Wall Street stocks buoyed by Trump nom­in­a­tion to vacancy at Fed

▸ European defence stocks sell off amid hopes of Ukraine peace agree­ment

▸ US gov­ern­ment debt dumped by investors after weak Treas­ury auc­tions

Wall Street stocks rose yes­ter­day as investors bet that Pres­id­ent Don­ald Trump's nom­in­a­tion of Stephen Miran to a vacancy at the cent­ral bank would boost the case for interest rate cuts.

The blue-chip S&P 500 index was up 0.8 per cent by early after­noon in New York. The tech-heavy Nas­daq Com­pos­ite had gained 0.9 per cent.

Wall Street was buoyed by hopes of a more dovish US Fed­eral Reserve after Trump said on Thursday that he will nom­in­ate Coun­cil of Eco­nomic Advisers chair Miran to fill the vacant gov­ernor role fol­low­ing Adri­ana Kugler's resig­na­tion last week.

Miran is a critic of Fed chair Jay Pow­ell and an ally of the pres­id­ent, who has repeatedly called for rate cuts and attacked Pow­ell.

“Given Miran's track record of being crit­ical of the Fed, we would expect to see at least a third dis­sent as soon as Septem­ber if the Fed doesn't cut [interest rates],” Bank of Amer­ica ana­lysts wrote.
