Stocks ripped higher Friday on the back of an upbeat jobs report, capping a tumultuous week that saw regional bank stocks buckle even after JPMorgan Chase swooped in to buy failing First Republic Bank and the Federal Reserve chairman said the banking system was sound. 

Risk appetite returned after Apple, the largest U.S. company by market value, reported first-quarter results that exceeded analyst expectations after the closing bell Thursday. Apple shares rallied 4.7%, helping to snap the S&P 500’s four-day losing streak.
