Although investors believe that the Federal Reserve will maintain high interest rates for a longer period of time, the strong corporate earnings season supported the market, and the three major Wall Street stock market indices all closed higher today.
$Dow Jones Industrial Average(.DJI.US$Up 146.43 points, or 0.38%, to close 38386.09 points.
$S&P 500 Index(.SPX.US$Up 16.21 points, or 0.32%, to close 5116.17 points.
$NASDAQ(NASDAQ.US$Up 55.18 points, or 0.35%, to close at 15983.08 points.
As optimism rises, I wonder if it will continue to drive Malaysian stocks to continue to rise?

In the technology sector, although Tesla continued to fall due to price adjustments, with a cumulative decline of more than 14% over a week, the strong performance of Nvidia and Arm led to a rise in the entire chip sector. Nvidia rose more than 4%, and Arm surged nearly 7%. Furthermore, Apple's AI big model development plan and Musk's emphasis on autonomous taxis (RoboTaxi) have also become the focus of market attention.
In the US bond market, the two-year US Treasury yield once broke through 5.0% and reached a five-month high, then declined somewhat.

[Brief description] More stable investors prefer to invest in dividends from banks, infrastructure, REIT, etc., because of the stable performance of this type of business, dividends are also quite generous. As a REIT writer, I'm certainly no exception. However, in addition to the above projects, there are other shares with generous dividends, one of which is preference shares (preference shares).
This type of stock has steady characteristics, and dividends are guaranteed, and declines are rare.
Regarding the characteristics of preferred stocks, I will explain the benefits of investing in preferred stocks on the upcoming live broadcast.
