The Closing Bell: Tech, Health Care Companies Leading US Stocks Higher: Dow Jumps Over 300 Points

TedTed
edited February 2018 in Fund Discussions
FYI: Technology and health care companies helped drive U.S. stocks broadly higher Friday, placing the market on course to finish a volatile week with a slight gain. Hewlett Packard Enterprise and HP led the gainers among technology stocks. Energy companies also rose along with crude oil prices. Bond yields receded from the four-year highs they reached earlier this week.
Regards,
Ted
