US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen gives equites a boost

US equities rose yesterday, supported by comments from US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen that the US government would step in again if smaller banks suffered deposit runs. Investors are now firmly focused on today's Federal Reserve meeting and Jerome Powell's press conference - it will be interesting to see if the markets give the decisions a thumbs up or thumbs down.
