Major US stock indices rose strongly on Tuesday, partially recovering from the biggest one-day drop in S & P and Dow in more than 6 years. Support for the indices was exacerbated by increased risk aversion, as well as the fading of fears over inflation and higher yields on government bonds

Negligible impact on the course of trading also provided data on the United States. As shown today, the survey of vacancies and labor turnover (JOLTS), published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the US, in December the number of vacancies fell to 5.811 million. Meanwhile, the indicator for November was revised upwards to 5.978 million from 5.879 million. Analysts had expected, that the number of vacancies will decrease to 5.9 million. The vacancy rate was 3.8%, decreasing by 0.1% compared to November. The number of vacancies has changed little in both the private sector and the government segment.

Quotes of oil fell by about 1% on Tuesday, covered by the latest wave of sales, which dealt a blow to the stock markets, bonds, crypto-currencies, and commodities. Even though Wall Street stocks recorded their biggest one-day drop since late 2011 on Monday and volatility indicators jumped to multi-year highs, reflecting increased nervousness among investors, oil did not suffer to the same extent.

Most components of the DOW index finished in positive territory (26 out of 30). The leader of growth was the shares of DowDuPont Inc. (DWDP, + 5.97%). Outsider were shares of Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM, -1.76%).

Almost all sectors of the S & P index recorded an increase. The consumer goods sector grew most (+ 2.0%). The decrease was shown only by the utilities sector (-0.8%).
