Wall Street stocks rose on Wednesday after the latest data showed that August inflation was not as bad as economists had expected.

在最新數據顯示8月通膨不像經濟學家預期那麼糟糕後,華爾街股市周三上漲。

The S&P 500 rose 0.4%, putting it on track to end September with a modest gain rather than a loss.

標普500指數上漲0.4%,有望以小幅上漲而非下跌結束9月。

As of 2:10 p.m. Eastern Time, the Dow Jones Industrial Average had fallen 137 points, or 0.3%, while the Nasdaq Composite had risen 0.9%.

截至美東時間下午2點10分,道瓊工業平均指數下跌137點或0.3%,那斯達克綜合指數上漲0.9%。

A report released this morning indicated that the overall cost of living for American consumers in August climbed 3.4% compared with the same period last year, a figure that came in better than economists' earlier forecast of 3.7%, even though it remains above the 2% target set by the Federal Reserve.

上午發布的報告指出,美國消費者8月的生活成本整體較去年同期攀升3.4%,此一數據優於經濟學家原先預期的3.7%,儘管仍舊高於聯準會所設定的2%目標。

This report came out after other August inflation reports released earlier this month; however, this figure is the indicator the Federal Reserve prefers more.

這份報告是在本月早些時候發布的其他8月通膨報告之後出爐的,然而,這項數據才是聯準會更為偏好的指標。

Traders therefore reduced their bets that the Federal Reserve would raise interest rates next month to further curb inflation.

交易員因而減少了對聯準會下個月升息以進一步遏制通膨的押注。

According to CME data, they now see only a 39% chance of a rate hike, down from a coin-flip level the previous day.

根據芝商所的數據,他們如今認為升息的可能性僅為39%,低於前一日五五波的水平。

Wall Street remains under pressure from the bond market.

華爾街依然承受著債券市場所施加的壓力。

The yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 5.30% from 5.26% late Tuesday.

10年期公債殖利率從周二晚些時候的5.26%升至5.30%。

As the centerpiece of the bond market, that yield touched its highest level since 2002 on Tuesday.

作為債券市場的核心,該殖利率在周二觸及2002年以來的最高水平。

The yield on the 30-year Treasury bond rose from 5.59% late Tuesday to 5.64%, a yield that already takes into account expectations for inflation and economic growth over the coming years.

30年期公債殖利率從周二晚些時候的5.59%升至5.64%,該殖利率已將對未來多年的通膨和經濟成長預期納入考量。

Higher yields drive up borrowing costs for everyone, which in turn weighs on the overall economy while pushing down the prices of all kinds of investments.

較高的殖利率會推高所有人的借貸成本,進而拖累整體經濟,同時壓低各類投資的價格。

Wall Street showed an upward trend during the early trading session.

華爾街於早盤交易時段呈現上漲態勢。

Admittedly, concerns about high inflation are only one of the reasons behind the surge in yields in the United States and around the world.

誠然,對高通膨的擔憂僅是美國和全球殖利率飆升的原因之一。

The seemingly resilient American economy, which keeps pressing ahead despite numerous challenges, has also underpinned yields, and a report on Wednesday said that US growth in the spring was even stronger than previously estimated.

看似穩健的美國經濟儘管面臨諸多挑戰仍持續前行,也支撐了殖利率,而周三的一份報告稱,美國春季的成長甚至比此前估計的更強勁。

Meanwhile, another report indicated that business activity in the Midwest expanded at a faster pace than economists had anticipated.

與此同時,另一份報告指出,中西部的商業活動擴張幅度優於經濟學家的預期。

Other factors pushing yields higher are also continuing to gain momentum, including concerns about the massive debt burdens carried by Washington and other governments around the world.

推高殖利率的其他因素亦在持續發酵,其中包括對華盛頓及全球其他政府所背負的巨額債務負擔的擔憂。

The bond market is also under upward pressure from another rise in oil prices, which have been fluctuating because it remains uncertain when the war with Iran will allow crude oil flows to fully recover.

債券市場還受到油價再次上漲的上行壓力,油價一直在波動,因為不確定與伊朗的戰爭何時能讓原油流動完全恢復。

The international benchmark Brent crude rose 2.2% to $98.26 a barrel.

國際基準布倫特原油上漲2.2%至每桶98.26美元。

On Wall Street, Hewlett Packard Enterprise shares surged 5.5%, becoming one of the factors driving the broader market higher.

在華爾街,慧與科技股價勁揚5.5%,成為推升大盤走勢的助力之一。

The company raised its revenue forecast for its networking business, which is benefiting from the boom in artificial intelligence technology.

該公司上調了旗下網路業務的營收預測,而這項業務正受惠於人工智慧技術的熱潮。

Nvidia, another winner in the AI sector, saw its share price rise by 1.4%, making it one of the strongest drivers behind the S&P 500's performance.

另一家AI領域的贏家輝達股價上漲1.4%,成為推升標普500指數走勢的最強勁動能之一。

However, as the market worries that its share price has climbed to excessively high levels, the company is under pressure, just like the entire industry.

然而,由於市場憂慮其股價已漲至過高水位,該公司與整個產業同樣承受著壓力。

In a high-interest-rate environment, stocks considered the most expensive in terms of valuation have been hit particularly hard.

在高利率環境下,被視為估值最為昂貴的股票所受打擊尤為沉重。

Nvidia also benefited from falling yields, as this allowed its customers to borrow at lower cost in order to build AI data centres.

輝達也受益於殖利率下降,因為這讓客戶能以更低成本借款,用來建造AI資料中心。

MongoDB's stock rose 4.8% after the company announced that its board's plan to return cash to shareholders through share buybacks would be increased by $1 billion.

MongoDB股價上漲4.8%,此前該公司表示,其董事會透過回購自家股票向股東返還現金的計畫將增加10億美元。

This helped MongoDB recover from a sharp decline earlier in the week, following the company's announcement that Chirantan "CJ" Desai would step down as CEO to take a senior position at Meta Platforms.

這幫助MongoDB收復了本周早些時候的劇烈跌幅,此前該公司稱Chirantan “CJ” Desai將卸任執行長,前往Meta Platforms擔任高階職位。

These gains helped offset the impact of a 2.6% decline in Cal-Maine Foods; earlier, the largest egg company in the United States reported a quarterly loss that exceeded analysts' expectations.

這些漲幅有助於抵銷Cal-Maine Foods下跌2.6%所帶來的衝擊;此前,這家美國最大的雞蛋公司公布的最新一季虧損超出分析師預期。

Because of an ample supply of eggs on the market, the prices Cal-Maine Foods was able to charge fell sharply compared with a year earlier.

由於市場上雞蛋供應充裕,Cal-Maine Foods得以收取的價格較一年前大幅下滑。

In overseas stock markets, European indices declined after mixed performance in Asian markets.

在海外股市方面,歐洲指數於亞洲市場漲跌互見後走低。

Japan's Nikkei 225 index surged 1.9%, while France's CAC 40 index fell 0.9%, both being among the world's more volatile indices.

日本日經225指數大漲1.9%,法國CAC 40指數下跌0.9%,兩者均為全球波動較大的指數之一。
