S&P Market News Update : Epic Research Singapore

U.S. stocks wrapped up one of the most tumultuous weeks of trading in recent memory with modest weekly gains after closing little changed on Friday.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.07%  which suffered a 1,000 point loss in a matter of minutes on Monday, traded in a 120-point range on Friday, and closed down 11.76 points, or less than 0.1% at 16,643.01. The blue-chip index gained 1.1% over the week.

The S&P 500 SPX, +0.06%  closed about a point higher at 1,988.87. Most of the gains came from a rally in the energy sector, thanks to a big jump in oil prices. The benchmark index recorded a 0.9% weekly gain.

The S&P 500 ended Tuesday’s volatile session slightly higher, as investors were whipsawed by the vagaries of Greece’s episodic debt negotiations.
