On Thursday, January 2, U.S. markets closed in the red, with Wall Street ending lower after a day of volatile trading. The session was shaped by strong labor market data, a strengthening dollar, and a decline in Tesla stock. Investors remained cautious, awaiting key employment data and fourth-quarter earnings, while uncertainties over Federal Reserve rate decisions and economic trends continued to weigh on sentiment.
