U.S. stocks close lower, book weekly losses

U.S. stocks closed mostly lower on Friday, with major indexes posting modest weekly declines as investors grappled with lingering uncertainty over trade negotiations between the U.S. and China, as well as bond yields that climbed this week to the highest level since 2011. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed nearly unchanged at 24,715.09, leaving it with a 0.5% weekly loss. The S&P 500 index fell 7.15 points, or 0.3% to 2,712.98 and ended the week 0.5% lower. Meanwhile the Nasdaq Composite declined 28.13 points, or 0.4% to 7,354.34 and fell 0.7% over the week. The Russell 2000 index of small-capitalization stocks rose 2.8 points, or 0.2%, to 1,628.12, a third record close in a row. For the week, the index rose 1.3%. Among the worst performers on the S&P 500, Campbell Soup Company shares plunged 12% after the company reported quarterly result and cut its full-year outlook.

Boeing 737 carrying 104 people crashes at airport in Cuba: reports

A Boeing 737 has crashed at Havana's Jose Marti International Airport on Friday, according to reports. According to CNN, the Boeing flight crashed upon takeoff from the Cuban airport. Local news indicates that 104 people were on board. The reports indicated that firefighters were battling plumes of heavy smoke and fire emanating from the downed jet. It isn't clear if any of the people on board the airliner were injured or dead. Boeing's shares didn't appear to react to the news. The aerospace company's shares were up 1.9%, or $6.41, at $350.55, helping on Friday limit a decline for the Dow Jones Industrial Average , where it is a major component. Update: Reports say the flight was a domestic headed to the city of Holguin. An earlier report had indicated that the flight was en route to Guyana.

Bull ‘trend’ strengthens, S&P 500 holds the 2,710 breakout point

Though U.S. stocks are off to a sluggish Friday start, boring is bullish against the prevailing market backdrop. Consider that the S&P 500 established the May peak (2,741) during this week’s first few hours, and the subsequent pullback has been orderly, underpinned by consecutive successful retests of the breakout point (2,710).
