Wall Street Ends Week With Small Gain, But Big Loss


The US stock indexes closed slightly higher on Friday, but it was not enough to prevent the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite from having their worst weekly performance in months. The uncertainty over interest rate cuts has been cited as a major factor in the decline.

The economic data releases offered contrasting views on the state of the US economy: a robust jobs report from the Labor Department, which showed US employers hired more workers than expected in December, and a weak services sector survey from the ISM (,Institute for Supply Management) which showed activity in the services sector fell in December.

Some individual stocks had notable movements on Friday, such as Peloton (up on a TikTok deal) and Palantir (down on a Jefferies report).
