US Stocks rebound on bargain buying

The US stocks moved mostly higher on Monday, 13 September 2021, with the Dow and the S&P 500 both settling higher, ending a five-day losing streak, as bargain hunting resumed with stocks set to benefit most from a resurging economy enjoying the biggest percentage gains. However, market gains capped as investors reluctant to make significant moves ahead of the Federal Reserve meeting, with the central bank potentially providing an update on the outlook for its asset purchase program.
