NEW YORK (dpa-AFX) – The Dow Jones Industrial (Dow Jones 30 Industrial) should start after four profit days in a row, initially with slight losses in the last trading day of the week. Broker IG valued the leading US index on Friday 0.25 percent lower at 28,320 points. The dominant topic on the market remains the exciting race for the White House.
Joe Biden has come one step closer to the White House. Incumbent’s Democratic challenger Donald Trump also took the lead in the count in the particularly hard-fought state of Georgia. The electoral count in the key state of Pennsylvania was also progressing rapidly.
Trump’s chances of a second term of office are therefore getting smaller. He should emerge victorious in the counts in all states that are still open – Alaska, Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania. According to the published election data, it did not look like that.
The monthly data from US job market. The recovery accelerated there in October: Employment rose faster than expected and the unemployment rate fell more sharply than previously forecast.
