Jerome Powell struck a more hawkish tone than had been anticipated when he addressed lawmakers yesterday…

The Fed Chair said signalled his support for a quicker withdrawal of the central banks massive asset purchase programme, stating “the economy is very strong and inflationary pressures are high”

Adding “it is therefore appropriate in my view to consider wrapping up the taper of our asset purchases . . . perhaps a few months sooner.”

Overnight in Asia, stocks have bounced from lows with the Hang Seng set for its best session in almost two months.
