How major US stock indexes fared Friday, 8/9/2024

Stocks are closing a wild, whipsaw week for Wall Street with modest gains.

The S&P 500 rose 0.5% Friday, coming off its best day since 2022, trimming its loss for the week down to less than 0.1%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.1%, and the Nasdaq composite added 0.5%. Both are also finishing the week with only modest losses after sharp, earlier drops on worries about the U.S. economy and other factors.

Expedia Group helped lead the way after a stronger-than-expected profit report. Treasury yields eased in the bond market ahead of big reports coming up next week on the economy.
