Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

Lower long-term yields reduce discount rates, boosting P/E multiples; oil-price easing lowers inflation risk and supports consumer spending; a probable Fed hold reduces near-term rate volatility, collectively favorable for broad equity risk assets, including the S&P 500.
