Major U.S. stock indexes rallied on Thursday after a sell-off in technology stocks on Wednesday sparked by the Fed's failure to cut interest rates in March.

As widely expected, the Federal Reserve left interest rate policy on hold, but Chairman Jerome Powell doused hopes that the Fed would soon start cutting rates, sparking a sell-off in U.S. stocks on Wednesday. Powell dismissed the possibility of a rate cut at the March meeting as unlikely because it is not the "base case" for the Fed as it considers easing monetary policy this year. Federal Reserve officials on Wednesday removed a description of the U.S. banking system as "sound and resilient" from a key policy statement, language the central bank had used since March 2023 to reassure the public that regional lending problems had been contained.
