The S&P 500 and Nasdaq on Tuesday logged their longest string of wins since November 2021. Investors remained focused on what clarity Federal Reserve officials might offer on the potential path of interest rates, with Fed Chairman Jerome Powell set to deliver a closely watched speech on Thursday.

The 10-year Treasury yield TMUBMUSD10Y pulled back to 4.522% on Wednesday, after briefly touching a 16-year high of 5% in October.
