Stocks of Nokia (NOK) Surge Over 3% in 2 Days: A Promising Sign of Broad Range Volatility
Stocks started the new trading month on a positive note. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite rose by 0.99% and 1.28% respectively, reaching their highest level since August. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 153.3 points, or 0.47%.
Concerns about the debt ceiling eased on Thursday. The Senate passed a bill to raise the debt ceiling late Thursday evening, sending it to President Joe Biden's desk. This came after the House of Representatives passed the Financial Responsibility Act by a vote of 314-117 on Wednesday evening, just a few days before the June 5 deadline set by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen.
Concerns that the U.S. might not meet its obligations if lawmakers failed to reach an agreement had worried some investors earlier in the week.
As much of the debt ceiling drama remains in the rearview mirror, investors' attention is now focused on Friday's employment report. The latest data indicates a strong labor market despite the Federal Reserve's aggressive rate-hiking plan, with over 80% of prints since January 2022 beating estimates.
Economists surveyed by Dow Jones expect a slowdown in job growth in May compared to the previous month, with an addition of 190,000 jobs compared to the 253,000 gained in April. This would be the lowest monthly increase since December 2020.
As the week comes to a close, both the S&P and Nasdaq are on track to finish with modest gains of 0.37% and 0.97% respectively. As of Thursday's close, the Dow was down 0.1% for the week. Our robots also demonstrated a slight increase this week, leaning more towards long positions.
A positive indicator is that stock movements are starting with smaller market capitalization companies. For example, Nokia's stock (NOK, $4.05) has risen by 1% and is further increasing by one and a half percent in pre-market trading. To achieve good profits, it is necessary for stock volatility to kick in on a broad front.
