5 分钟Hey listeners, it's Saturday, October 25th.
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.
Overall, we had a relatively sunny week in the stock market.
Tech stocks took a hit on Wednesday due to fears of renewed trade tensions between the U.S. and China.
But overall,
investors seemed to be optimistic about President Trump's upcoming meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.
Meanwhile, it was a jam-packed week for corporate earnings.
We'll dig into some specific earnings reports in a bit, but to put it in perspective,
nearly one-fifth of the S&P 500 reported results, including big names like Tesla and Netflix.
I can't speak for everyone, but it really feels like this year is flying by.
I don't know where the time is going.
All in all, the Dow rose 2.2% for the week, the S&P 500 gained 1.9%, and the NASDAQ rose 2.3%.
Now, don't think I wasn't going to mention the giant internet breakdown that kicked off this week.
No, I put it at the top of my list.
Amazon breaks the internet.
So a quick rundown in case you were off the grid this past week.
On Monday, a widespread outage linked to Amazon Web Services cascaded across the web.
More than 4,000 flights were delayed.
