US markets close firmly in green on Friday

10 Dec 2016 Evaluate

Extending their northward journey for fifth day in a row, the US markets ended the Friday’s session firmly in green. The strength on Wall Street reflected a continuation of the upward momentum seen following President-elect Donald Trump's surprise victory in last month's elections. Reflecting the optimism about Trump being in the White House, the University of Michigan released a report showing a much bigger than expected improvement in consumer sentiment in the month of December. The University of Michigan said the preliminary reading on its consumer sentiment index for December came in at 98.0 compared to the final November reading of 93.8. Nonetheless, trading activity was somewhat subdued as traders looked ahead to next week’s Federal Reserve announcement. Following a two-day meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee, the Fed is scheduled to announce its monetary policy decision next Wednesday. The Fed is widely expected to raise interest rates by a quarter point, reflecting the first rate hike by the central bank in a year.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 142.04 points or 0.72 percent to 19,756.85, Nasdaq gained 27.14 points or 0.50 percent to 5,444.50, while S&P 500 was up by 13.34 points or 0.59 percent to 2,259.53.

The Indian ADRs closed mostly in red; HDFC Bank declined 1.05%, Dr. Reddy’s Lab shed 0.64%, Tata Motors slipped 0.40% and Wipro was down by 0.01%. On the other hand, ICICI Bank was up by 0.09%.
