U.S. Stocks Reach Records After Jobs Report
|
8.2
U.S. stocks hit record highs Friday after a mixed December jobs report, with the S&P 500 up 0.6%, the Dow up 0.5%, and the Nasdaq up 0.8%. The Labor Department said hiring missed forecasts while the unemployment rate improved, prompting traders to pare odds of a Fed rate cut at the next meeting to about 5% and fueling rallies in energy, homebuilder, and small-cap stocks.
