Officials sent the message that they believed interest rates would have to stay higher for longer to cool inflation toward their 2% target rate.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank President  emphasized the point on Monday, staying that given the surprising resilience of the U.S. economy, the Fed probably needs to raise borrowing rates further and keep them high for some time to bring inflation back down to 2%.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">On Monday, the benchmark , tech-heavy , and 30-stock  climbed, snapping four-day losing streaks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">But all of the indices are still on course to finish September sharply in the red, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite down 5.4% in September, heading for its worst month since December, while the S&amp;P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average had lost 3.8% and 2.1%, respectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Moody\u2019s warns about shutdown damage<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Also weighing on sentiment is the uncertainty surrounding a potential federal government shutdown, an occurrence that would harm the country&#8217;s credit, rating agency Moody&#8217;s (NYSE:) Investors Service said on Monday.
