[Asia Economy New York=Special Correspondent Joselgina] Major indices of the U.S. New York Stock Exchange closed higher on the 28th (local time) despite the second-quarter Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate recording consecutive negative figures.


On this day, the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed up 1.02% compared to the previous session. The large-cap-focused S&P 500 index rose 1.21%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq index closed up 1.08%.



This upward trend is analyzed as a result of increased recession concerns, leading to heightened bets that the central bank, the Federal Reserve (Fed), will soon slow down its pace of tightening.
