Stocks sink as Wall Street eyes downside of solid jobs data

Print | Front Page | Email this story

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks ended another bumpy week with more losses Friday as investors considered the downside of the still-strong U.S. jobs market.

The S&P 500 fell 1.6%, marking its eighth losing week in the last nine. Losses in big technology companies helped pull the Nasdaq down 2.5%.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 1%.

But many investors saw it keeping the Federal Reserve on its path to hiking interest rates aggressively.

The yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 2.94%.
