US markets end higher posting their second-straight week of gains

14 Sep 2013 Evaluate

US markets ended at the highest point of the day on Friday with Dow posting its second best weekly gain this year and all three major averages posting their second-straight week of gains. Though, the trade remained somehow cautious as trader looked ahead to next week's Federal Reserve policy meeting, as there were few weak economic reports. The Commerce Department showed weaker than expected retail sales growth in the month of August. The retail sales rose by 0.2 percent in August following an upwardly revised 0.4 percent increase in July and producer prices rose 0.3 percent in August as energy costs rebounded. While, the Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan Surveys of Consumers' preliminary September consumer sentiment index fell to 76.8 from the final August figure of 82.1. The disappointing data generated some optimism that the Federal Reserve will delay plans to begin scaling back its asset purchase program at next week's meeting.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 75.42 points or 0.49 percent to 15,376.06, the Nasdaq edged up 6.22 points or 0.19 percent to 3,722.18, while the S&P 500 ended higher by 4.57 points or 0.27 percent to 1,687.99.

The Indian ADRs made a mixed closing on Friday, HDFC Bank was up by 0.19%, ICICI Bank was up by 0.37%, Tata Motors gained 0.25%. On the other hand Infosys was down by 0.34%, Sterlite Inds declined by 0.05% and Wipro ended lower by 0.11%.
