Dow Climbs higher, led by earnings...
http://www.folkd.com/user/ericavillalon The Dow climbed higher Thursday, led by gains in technology ahead of earnings from big tech, while positive economic data helped eased worries about the pace of recovery amid a surge in coronavirus cases. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.75%, or 199 points. The S&P 500 was up 1.36%, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 1.78%. FAANG, with the exception of Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX ), led tech higher as bargain-hunting investors appeared to swoop in for big tech stocks following a rout a day earlier. Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ), Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN ), Google-parent Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL ) and Facebook (NASDAQ: FB ), all of which report earnings after the bell, traded in the green. Facebook was up more than 5% as investors bet the social media giant is set to report a solid quarter of earnings following impressive quarterly results from its social media peers including Snap (NYSE: SNAP ) and Pinterest. https://ericavillalon.tumblr.c

Market Dips for losses at Open...
https://sites.google.com/site/ericavillalonforex/ The three main stock indexes were headed for their worst week since mid-March as hopes of a quick recovery were doused by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's somber outlook on the economy and leading U.S. infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci's warning that the virus was not yet under control. Economic readings continued to reflect the pain caused by the pandemic, as data showed 2.98 million Americans filed for state unemployment benefits last week, higher than economists' estimates. However, this marked the sixth straight weekly drop in jobless claims, since topping 6 million in the final week of March. The focus now turns to retail sales data on Friday that will reflect the impact of stay-at-home orders on the U.S. consumer in April.

The mood in Europe remained grim with Italy, Spain, and France on virtual lockdowns as governments tried to maintain social distancing that has brought almost all but the essential economic activity to a halt. At this point, investors are essentially flying blind as the length of the containment is uncertain and the economic impact of the health measures could be catastrophic. In US, for example, companies have enough cash on hand for about 60 days of payroll – but that figure applies only to the largest corporations rather than the 80% of small and medium-size
US Dollar Drifts Higher.. The dollar drifted higher against developed-market peers but gave up gains against emerging currencies in early trading in Europe on Friday, as the market digested the Federal Reserve’s pledge to inject $1.5 trillion in reserves into the financial system late on Thursday. The Fed also announced that its already-scheduled injection of reserves through T-bill purchases would now take place along the whole Treasury yield curve, in an effort to ease budding liquidity problems in the world’s benchmark risk-free asset. Analysts described that move as the start of “QE4” – a fresh round of quantitative easing that President Donald Trump has already called for. By 5:30 AM ET (0930 GMT), the dollar index , which measures the greenback against a basket of currencies, was essentially flat at 97.45. It was up 1.3% against the Japanese yen at 105.95 and unchanged against the safe haven S http://ericavillalon.strikin
