Wall Street. Major U.S. stock-indexes little changed

Major U.S. stock-indexes little changed in choppy trading on Friday after a U.S. missile strike on Syria sent investors scurrying to safe-havens, while weak jobs data weighed on financial stocks. U.S. employers added about 98,000 jobs in March, well below economists' expectation of 180,000. While the job additions were the lowest in 10 months, the Labor Department report was seen as an outlier amid a spate of recent positive economic data.

Dow stocks mixed (15 vs 15). Top loser - The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (GS, -0.72%). Top gainer - Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (WMT, +1.86%).

Most of S&P sectors in positive area. Top loser - Financials (-0.1%). Top gainer - Industrial goods (+0.5%).


At the moment:

Dow 20616.00 +11.00 +0.05%

S&P 500 2354.75 +1.00 +0.04%

Nasdaq 100 5424.25 +1.50 +0.03%

Oil 52.23 +0.53 +1.03%

Gold 1267.30 +14.00 +1.12%

U.S. 10yr 2.34 -0.01
