Today's Research Reports on Trending Tickers: PTC Therapeutics and Seattle Genetics
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / July 20, 2018 / U.S. indexes ended their five day winning streak, which was spurred by strong corporate earnings, as losses from the financial sector dragged markets lower on Thursday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.53 percent to close at 25,064.50, while the S&P 500 Index was down 0.40 percent to close at 2,804.49. The Nasdaq Composite Index shed 0.37 percent to close at 7,825.30.
“Equity benchmarks are reacting to some disappointing earnings releases today, but we should note that overall moves are modest,” according to Matthew Forester, chief investment officer at BNY Mellon's Lockwood Advisors. “Since 2012, the large chunk of equity gains came during the earnings season and we expect this to be the case this year,” Forester added.
