US close: Dow Jones reverses Friday's losses

(Sharecast News) - Wall Street stocks were in the green at the close of trading on Monday as market participants prepared for a week jam-packed with Q3 earnings. At the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 0.65% at 42,387.57, while the S&P 500 advanced 0.27% to 5,823.52 and the Nasdaq Composite saw out the session 0.26% firmer at 18,567.19.

The Dow closed 273.17 points higher on Monday, reversing losses recorded in the previous session as the blue-chip index snapped a six-week winning streak.

Earnings were set to be in focus this week as five of the so-called "Magnificent Seven" will report quarterly numbers before the week is out, with figures due from Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta Platforms, Amazon and Apple.

Both 5 November's presidential election and news that weekend airstrikes by Israel against Iran had not targeted oil or nuclear facilities as initially feared also drew an amount of investor attention on Monday.

The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note was also higher on Monday, up more than two basis points at 4.286%, while its two-year counterpart was over three basis points higher at 4.153%.

On the macro front, the Dallas Federal Reserve's manufacturing index rose to -3 in October, up from -9 in September, pointing to a mild contraction in the ongoing sequence of negative readings that started in May 2022. The production index shot up 18 points to +14.6, its highest reading in more than two years.
