Plenty of ASX shares are hitting fresh record-high prices today alongside the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO), which ascended to a new all-time peak of 8,148.7 points in early trading.
The market is red hot on Thursday after the United States Federal Reserve decided to keep the official US interest rate on hold for a 13th consecutive month in the range of 5.25% to 5.5%.
US markets responded positively, with the S&P 500 Index (SP: .INX) gaining 1.6% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index (NASDAQ: .IXIC) screeching 2.6% higher.
This has put a rocket under the ASX 200 today, with our benchmark index up 0.7% at its peak.
