  • The S&P 500 added 1.1% on Wednesday, March 19, 2025, as the Fed held interest rates steady, reaffirming plans for future cuts but expressing caution on inflation and growth.

The article from MSN Money discusses the performance of the S&P 500, highlighting Boeing's significant surge due to several positive developments. Boeing's stock rose after the company announced a $1.5 billion bond sale, which was seen as a move to strengthen its financial position.

The article also touches on broader market trends, noting that despite these individual movements, the S&P 500 as a whole was slightly up, reflecting cautious optimism among investors.
