Stock Market Wrap-Up: AMC Hopes for a Hollywood Ending; Why Are Energy Stocks Soaring?
The stock market jumped to close the week, rising on hopes that the U.S. economy might be able to restart in the near future. Calls from the White House to urge state and local governments to ease restrictions on travel and work seemed to energize Wall Street, sending the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) and the S&P 500 index (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) to gains of nearly 3%. The Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) settled for a more modest gain, although small-cap stocks rose even more sharply.
