The U.S. stock market closed lower Friday, weighed down by Big Tech as all three major benchmarks saw weekly losses but still finished August with monthly gains.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average retreated 92.02 points on Friday, or 0.2%, to close at 45,544.88.
The S&P 500 fell 41.60 points, 0.6%, to end at 6,460.26.
The Nasdaq Composite dropped 249.61 points, or a sharp 1.1%, to finish at 21,455.55.
The big event on the U.S. economic calendar Friday was the fresh inflation data from the personal-consumption-expenditures price index, which was in line with Wall Street’s expectations.
“There’s no new justification” for the stock market’s selloff on Friday, except for maybe investors wanted to dodge September as the historically worst month for returns, said José Torres, senior economist at Interactive Brokers, in emailed comments. On the last trading day of August, investors were “grabbing profits,” following the S&P 500’s rally so far this year, he said.
The S&P 500 has rallied 9.8% in 2025, including an August gain of 1.9%. The Dow climbed 3.2% in August while the tech-heavy Nasdaq finished with a monthly gain of 1.6%. The U.S. stock market will be closed on Monday in honor of Labor Day.
Oil prices settled higher on Thursday, bouncing off early losses after the White House said U.S. President Donald Trump was not happy when he learned that Russia attacked Ukraine with missiles and drones overnight.
Brent crude futures settled up 57 cents, or 0.8%, at $68.62 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures rose 45 cents, or 0.7%, to close at $64.60 a barrel.
Russia hit Ukraine with deadly missiles and drone strikes early on Thursday, killing at least 21 people in Kyiv, city officials said. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian military said it used drones to hit two Russian oil refineries overnight.
Trump will make a statement on the situation later on Thursday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters. Both oil benchmarks were down about 1% earlier in the session, but turned positive after her comments.
Traders are also watching for India's response to pressure from the U.S. to stop buying Russian oil, after Trump doubled tariffs on imports from India to as much as 50% on Wednesday.
U.S. stocks closed higher Thursday — with the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 swooping to fresh record closing highs.
The Nasdaq ended up, but shy of a record.
The Dow gained 71.67 points, or 0.2%, ending at 45,636.90, a new record.
The S&P 500 added 20.46 points, or 0.3%, finishing at 6,501.86, logging its own record finish.
The Nasdaq climbed 115.02 points, or 0.5%, closing at 21,705.16, but not a record close.
What started out as a weak session led by gains in technology stocks following Nvidia Corp.'s earnings broadened out later in the day. On deck is July's PCE inflation report Friday to close out the month.
