Benzinga examined the prospects for many investors’ favorite stocks over the last week. Here’s a look at some of our top stories.
The S&P 500 ended the week down by 0.04%, having briefly turned positive during Friday's session before losing its gains. Meanwhile, the blue-chip Dow and tech-heavy Nasdaq also finished the week lower, down by 0.6% and 0.18%, respectively.
This week was 2024’s most volatile, with the Dow dropping more than 1,000 points on Monday and the S&P 500 losing 3%, driven by disappointing payroll data and concerns over delayed Federal Reserve rate cuts.
The Bank of Japan’s dovish stance on Wednesday halted short-covering flows into the yen, preventing the carry trade’s unwinding, which was affecting liquidity in riskier assets. Following this, the major indexes saw a robust recovery as Thursday’s positive weekly jobless claims report eased investors’ concerns about the U.S. economy.
