The Closing Bell: Wall St. Dips As JPMorgan Leads Bank Stocks Lower

TedTed
edited April 2018 in The Bullpen
FYI: U.S. stocks were under pressure Friday afternoon, with major indexes losing an early gain as the first reads on the earnings season failed to excite, painting a mixed picture about the strength of American corporations at a time of geopolitical anxieties.

In focus were results from three major banks. While the results largely came in ahead of forecasts, starting the first-quarter reporting season on a positive note, stocks fell and pushed the overall financial sector lower.
Regards,
Ted
