The US markets ended the choppy day of trade mostly in green on Friday, as traders took some support with report from the Commerce Department showing a rebound in new home sales in the month of May. The new home sales climbed by 2.9 percent to an annual rate of 610,000 in May from the upwardly revised April rate of 593,000. Street had expected new home sales to jump by 5.4 percent to a rate of 600,000 from the 569,000 originally reported for the previous month. Traders also continued to digest the details of the Senate Republican plan to repeal and replace Obamacare that was unveiled on Thursday. Nevada Senator Dean Heller, R-Nev., has joined four other Republican Senators in saying he cannot support the plan in its current form. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ken., has little margin for error with the bill, as he can only afford to lose the support of two Republicans and still pass the legislation.
S&P 500 rose 3.80 points or 0.16 percent to 2,438.30 and Nasdaq was up by 28.56 points or 0.46 percent to 6,265.25, however the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down by 2.53 points or 0.01 percent to 21,394.76.
