Wall Street Summary
The $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$ retreated 1.15% in Thursday's stock market trading. The $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ gave up 1%. The $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ shed 0.7%.
The $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$ retreated 1.15% in Thursday's stock market trading. The $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ gave up 1%. The $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ shed 0.7%.
The 10-year Treasury yield rose 7 basis points to 3.83%, as several Fed officials stuck to the central bank's hawkish line. It jumped 14 basis points on Wednesday. The 10-year yield is now up for the week and not far from 12-year highs right around 4%. The 10-year Treasury yield falling Monday-Tuesday was a key tailwind for the new stock market rally attempt.
U.S. crude oil prices rose 0.8% to $88.45 a barrel, their fourth straight advance. OPEC+ on Wednesday agreed to cut production quotas by 2 million barrels per day.
Investors weren't ready to make big bets heading into Friday's jobs report. The employment report could be pivotal for the market rally attempt. But a negative jobs report reaction could send the indexes tumbling toward their bear market lows again.

"Gold is entering consolidation mode as traders await nonfarm payrolls. The lead up to NFP Friday saw a mixed round of employment readings that has many bullion investors on standby. A hot labor market and strong wages could keep the bond market selloff going and should decide what will be gold's next major move," said Moya
