S&P 500 closes higher Friday as Amazon surges; Dow posts fourth straight winning month:
Live updates
The major averages were markedly higher Friday, the last trading session in July, as investors looked past rising bond yields and Amazon shares jumped.
The Nasdaq Composite rose 1% to end at 25,373.85, while the S&P 500 added 0.7% to close at 7,489.72. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 276.97 points, or 0.53%, to 52,485.03.
The 30-year Treasury bond yield spiked to its highest levels since 2007 this week. It was last up about 4 basis points on the day at 5.25%.
The benchmark 10-year Treasury note yield topped 4.7% on the day, its highest level since January 2025.
The moves come as investors lost faith in Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh’s commitment to curb inflation, leading yields to jump. While Warsh indicated he is committed to the inflation fight, he did say this week, “We’ve got no magic wand.”
