Nasdaq, stocks close week higher on top of positive jobs report
US stocks (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) close Friday's trading session in positive territory, the Nasdaq Composite index leading gains and rising over 1.2%. All three of the major market indexes closed out the first trading week of June with weekly gains. Market Domination Overtime's Julie Hyman and Yahoo Finance markets and data editor Jared Blikre recap the day's market and sector moves on the backdrop of the May jobs report release this morning. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Domination Overtime here. That is the closing bell on Wall Street on this Friday. Now, it's time for market domination overtime. Jared Blickre going to be along in a moment to get us up to speed on the action from today's trade. I'm going to start with major averages finishing here higher for the day. All three major averages after we got a jobs report this morning that was okay. Okay enough to satisfy most investors here coming in with a gain of 139,000 jobs last month. Unemployment rate at 4.2%. All of that equaling higher stocks and higher bond yields as well. The Dow up 443 points on the day, a little more than 1%. The S&P 500 up a percent on the day as well. And the NASDAQ composite up 1 and a quarter percent. Now, as Josh pointed out earlier today, there was a headline that crossed late in the afternoon that the US was going to be having a phone call with London just on forwarding those trade talks. That didn't seem to make much of a dent, even though we know that this is a market that has been hungry for trade positive trade headlines. Uh so we'll see if we get some in the next few weeks as we get closer to some of the next deadlines when it comes to expiration of pauses and tariffs and such. Jared's got a closer look at today's action. Thank you, Julie. At the end of the day, at the end of the week, we are up. And I think that is welcome news for traders. Another potential catalyst, maybe even a negative one, behind us. And the net result today is a bit of risk on action. You can see that in the NASDAQ behind me that Julie was just looking at. Here's the five-day total up about 2.18%. Here's the S&P 500, a bit lower, 1 and a half percent, and the Dow below that. Still looking at gains of about 1.17%. And the Russell 2000, actually the leader of the group, up over 3% here. So nice showing for the small caps. And I was also checking out the VIX just now, dropped to a 16 handle. This is the lowest. I'm going to put a year-to-date chart on. This is the lowest we've seen since 221, February 21st. That was two trading days after that 219 high. And that was the ultimate high, the record high of the of the market. And so interesting to note that. Here is the ICE BofA move index. This is like the VIX of the bond market. And not quite as low relatively as the VIX, but still heading in the right direction, which is down. We did see yields pop today. And this is something I'm going to be watching closely next week. We got the 10-year above 4 and a half percent and the 30-year almost at 5% yet again. It's up eight basis points today. That's quite a bit. We do have a big set of auctions next week. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, we got the threes, the tens, and the 30s. And so there's going to be a lot of eyes on the bond market. If we get some weak foreign buyers there, some weak interest, well, we could see risk markets take a little bit of a tumble. But what I like today, US dollar index was also up. So the sell America theme, not it today. Uh and let's check out the sector action first, and we'll get back to the NASDAQ. The energy sector was leading today up about 1.9%, followed by consumer discretionary, communication services, financials. All four of these outperforming the S&P 500. Tech next up on the on the final or on the upper row. That was up about 1%. Everything in the green there, you can see. And here's the NASDAQ. Tesla bouncing back, uh 3.67%. I think Tesla investors will take that. Broadcom taking a little bit of a tumble here. That's Tesla. Broadcom down 5%, but it was hitting record highs just a few days ago. Alphabet up 3% and a lot, lot more red, or a lot more green than red. And let's check out the final tally on the Dow. Then I'll send it back to you. Just a few staples and consumer discretionary stocks in the red here. Looks like an industrial as well with 3M, Walmart, Home Depot, McDonald's, Sherwin Williams. But for the most part, looking at a lot of green today. Sign in to access your portfolio
