US market close mostly up; S&P 500 edges lower

26 Nov 2013 Evaluate

The US markets closed mostly higher on Monday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average eking out a small gain after global powers agreed a deal with Iran to curb the nation’s nuclear program. The Nasdaq briefly topped 4,000 for the first time since September 2000, but failed to close above that key level. Over the weekend, Iran and six global powers including the US reached a six-month agreement to curb Tehran’s nuclear program. Some economic sanctions on Iran will be eased as part of the deal, but core sanctions on Iran’s banking and oil trade will remain in place. Besides, the trading volume is expected to be low during this holiday-shortened week and there are few economic and earnings reports on tap. The US markets will be closed on Thursday for Thanksgiving and will shut at 1 p.m. ET on Friday.

On the economy front, the pace of pending US home sales fell in October for the fifth straight month, reflecting higher mortgage rates, a low number of properties for sale and effects from the government shutdown. The National Association of Realtors stated that the pending home sales index fell 0.6% to 102.1 and dropped to its lowest level since last December, One year earlier, the index stood at 103.8.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 7.77 points or 0.05 percent to 16,072.50 and Nasdaq added 2.92 points or 0.07 percent to 3,994.57 while, the S&P 500 was down 2.28 points or 0.13 percent to 1,802.48.

Indian ADRs closed mostly in green on Monday; Tata Motors was up 1.07%, ICICI Bank was up 1.06% and HDFC Bank was up 0.28%. On the other hand, Infosys was down 0.69% and Wipro was down 0.04%.
