5 分钟Hey, listeners. It's Saturday, June 14th.
I'm Francesca Fontana for the Wall Street Journal, and this is What's News in Markets,
our look at the biggest stock moves of the week and the news that drove them.
Let's get to it.
The stock market started the week on a high note,
as trade talk optimism fueled gains in the S&P 500.
In midweek,
investors were digesting data suggesting that the U.S. economy may be getting closer to an interest rate cut.
Friday was a different story.
Israel's attack on Iran and Iran's retaliation sent stocks dropping on fears of a wider conflict.
While the broader indexes were down, there were sectors that rallied.
Energy stocks followed oil prices higher, and defense stocks like Lockheed Martin gained.
On a weekly basis, all three major indexes ended lower.
The Dow fell 1.3 percent.
The S&P 500 lost 0.4 percent.
And the Nasdaq ended down 0.6%.
If you're familiar with the big TV streamers,
you probably have gotten a good chuckle at all of the jokes and memes that came out after HBO Max's latest renaming.
Now it's Max.
No, now it's HBO Max.
