US markets end higher on Monday

30 Nov 2021 Evaluate

The US markets ended higher on Monday after the steep drop seen last Friday dragged the major averages down to their lowest closing levels in at least a month. Sentiment got boost as President Joe Biden said there is no need for the US to reimpose lockdowns as a result of the new variant. The US has imposed travel restrictions on South Africa and several other African nations, although Biden said he does not expect addition restrictions. On the sectoral front, Semiconductor stocks moved sharply higher over the course of the session, driving the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index up by 4.1 percent. Substantial strength was also visible among software stocks, as reflected by the 2.3 percent jump by the Dow Jones US Software Index. Computer hardware stocks also turned in a strong performance on the day, resulting in a 1.8 percent advance by the NYSE Arca Computer Hardware Index.

On the economic data front, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) released a report showing pending home sales rebounded by much more than expected in the month of October. NAR said its pending home sales index spiked by 7.5 percent to 125.2 in October after tumbling by 2.4 percent to a revised 116.5 in September. Street had expected pending home sales to increase by 1.0 percent compared to the 2.3 percent slump originally reported for the previous month. A pending home sale is one in which a contract was signed but not yet closed. Normally, it takes four to six weeks to close a contracted sale.

Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 236.6 points or 0.68 percent to 35,135.94, Nasdaq rose 291.18 points or 1.88 percent to 15,782.83 and S&P 500 was up by 60.65 points or 1.32 percent to 4,655.27.
