Today’s Research Reports on Trending Tickers: Dropbox and Yelp
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / May 11, 2018 / U.S. markets eked out gains on Thursday, on the back of positive economic data and strong performance from the technology sector. The technology sector has gained almost 7% in May which is a much steeper gain than any other sector. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 0.80 percent to close at 24,739.53, logging its 6th day of gain, while the S&P 500 Index spiked 0.94 percent to close at 2,723.07. The Nasdaq Composite Index rose 0.89 percent to close at 7,404.97.
“Because this handful of stocks (in technology sector) are continuing to lead, it will be hard to get the kind of market breadth that you’d like to see signal a more positive backdrop. I’d like to see broader participation, and more trading volume on positive days. Until we get that, then I’m not sure that the consolidation phase has ended,” said William Delwiche, an investment strategist at Robert W. Baird.
