The S&P 500 Index ($SPX) (SPY) Thursday closed up +0.09%, the Dow Jones Industrials Index ($DOWI) (DIA) closed up +0.09%, and the Nasdaq 100 Index ($IUXX) (QQQ) closed up +0.19%.
Stock indexes recovered from early losses on Thursday and settled slightly higher. Stocks found support on Thursday’s weaker-than-expected US economic reports that knocked bond yields lower and reinforced speculation the Fed will be able to cut interest rates this year.
