What Investors Missed in the Market This Week
It was a wild week in the markets, with earnings season continuing to chug along in full force. Investors were also gifted with a solid jobs report for July: The U.S. created 209,000 new jobs last month, topping Wall Street forecasts of 175,000. That was good enough to send the unemployment rate down from 4.4% to 4.3%. As always, though, it's important not to read too much into any one jobs report, so take it with a grain of salt.
In other news, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended at a record for the eighth consecutive trading day, finishing above 22,000.
With the week in the record books, let's turn our attention to three companies that made big headlines or big market moves.
