Today’s Research Reports on Trending Tickers: First Solar and Lightbridge
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / January 23, 2018 / U.S. markets closed in the green on Monday after the Senate reached a deal to end the government shutdown. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.55 percent to close at 26,214.60, while the S&P 500 Index rose 0.81 percent to close at 2,832.97. The Nasdaq Composite Index jumped 0.98 percent to close at 7,408.03. On Monday, Senate members agreed to keep the government open through February 8th.
"Investors have learned from history that shutdowns don't impact markets, so it's not surprising to see stock prices higher," said Kristina Hooper, chief global market strategist at Invesco, according to MarketWatch.
"The biggest geopolitical risk to markets in the long term is trade-protectionist policies. In the short-term, the wrangling over the debt ceiling is likely to spook investors a lot more than shutdown does because the impact on markets is direct," Hooper said.
