US stocks closed lower on Friday after weaker-than-expected August jobs data raised concerns about a slowing economy, even as expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts firmed. The S&P 500 gave up earlier gains, ending 0.3% lower and below Thursday's record close, the Dow dropped 220 points, while the Nasdaq 100 was flat.

Traders priced in a higher chance of interest-rate cuts, with bets rising on a potential 50bps reduction this month. Banks,...
European stocks closed on Friday, tracking the pullback in US equities after pessimistic labor data from the US sounded alarms over the world's largest economy. The Eurozone's STOXX 50 dropped 0.6% to 5,330, and the pan-European STOXX 600 fell 0.2% to 549. Nonfarm payrolls in the US were well under market expectations and the unemployment rate, which is under special scrutiny by the Federal Reserve, rose to a near-four-year high. The results backed bets of incoming cuts by the Fed, but such support was offset by concerns of a weakening economy and the pressure on export-oriented sectors in...
US stocks rallied on Friday (September 5th), with the S&P 500 rising 0.4% and the Nasdaq gaining 0.6% to new record highs, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose nearly 100 points as a weak jobs report reinforced expectations of a Fed rate cut this year. The US economy added only 22,000 jobs in August, well below the 75,000 expected, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.3%, the highest since 2021 and in line with expectations. The figures point to a cooling labor market and reinforce speculation that the Fed will cut interest rates later this month, with the market now pricing in...
The Hang Seng index surged 359 points, or 1.4%, to close at 25,418 on Friday, ending a three-day losing streak. Optimism improved after Wall Street's S&P 500 hit a record high on Thursday, with traders betting that the Fed would cut interest rates this month amid further signs of a weakening US labor market.
