New York Stocks End: Dow and S&P set new records according to job data | 04.12.20

NEW YORK (dpa-AFX) – The Dow Jones Industrial (Dow Jones 30 Industrial) set a new record on Friday after a break of a few days. The leading index rose for the first time above the mark of 30,200 points, which was about 100 points more than the previous high from the previous week. It closed at 30,218.26 points, its high for the day. With an increase of 0.83 percent, it increased its weekly plus to a good 1 percent.

At the end of the week, the standard values ​​were more in demand than the technology values, which, in addition to the Dow, also brought the market-wide S&P 500 a record high. It rose by 0.88 percent to 3699.12 meters. The NASDAQ 100 tech selection index rose 0.49 percent to 12,528.48 points, but was unable to set another record. However, this was achieved by its broader index brother Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQ Composite Index).

Investors in New York were unimpressed that US employment growth in November fell far short of expectations. On the market it was said that this had been compensated by the hope for a new stimulus package. With the mixed job data, the pressure on the parties in Washington to finally reach an agreement has increased even more./tih/he
