Global stocks rallied Tuesday, as Beijing cut interest rates following another sharp drop in Chinese markets.
U.S. stocks climbed, echoing an earlier rally in Europe. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 406 points, or 2.6%, at 16278 in morning trade. The S&P 500 rose 50 points, or 2.7%, to 1944.
Markets in Europe had extended early gains after China’s central bank cut interest rates by one-quarter of a percentage point, reassuring investors that Beijing is prepared to take fresh measures to boost the economy. The People’s Bank of China also reduced bank-reserve requirements by half of a percentage point, effectively adding 678 billion yuan (about $106 billion) to the Chinese economy.
