US markets end sharply higher on Friday

21 Jan 2023 Evaluate

Regaining ground after posting steep losses for two straight days, the US markets ended sharply higher on Friday with strong gains in Nasdaq led by rally in Tech stocks. The strength on Wall Street came as traders looked to pick up stocks at relatively reduced levels following recent weakness, which reflected ongoing concerns about the outlook for the economy and interest rates. The rally by tech stocks partly reflected a positive reaction to quarterly results from streaming giant Netflix (NFLX). Netflix soared after the company reported fourth quarter earnings that missed analyst estimates but stronger than expected subscriber growth.

On the economic data front, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) released a report showing a continued decline in U.S. existing home sales in the month of December, although the decrease was much smaller than market participants had expected. NAR said existing home sales slumped by 1.5 percent to an annual rate of 4.02 million in December after plunging by 7.9 percent to a revised rate of 4.08 million in November. Street had expected existing home sales to tumble by 3.4 percent to an annual rate of 3.95 million from the 4.09 million originally reported for the previous month.

Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 330.93 points or 1.00 percent to 33,375.49, Nasdaq advanced 288.17 points or 2.66 percent to 11,140.43 and S&P 500 was up by 73.76 points or 1.89 percent to 3,972.61.
