The strong dollar is a stock-market drag and poses a threat to earnings growth
The U.S. dollar has been on a nearly unstoppable uptrend since the start of the second quarter, rising in tandem with government bond yields, while equities got the short end of the stick. Now, investors wonder whether a buoyant buck will derail earnings growth. Since the beginning of April, the ICE U.S. Dollar Index (IFUS:DX-Y.NYB), a popular gauge of the U.S. currency that measures it against six rivals, is up 3.9%.

U.S. stocks stalled Friday, posting weekly losses as bubbling uncertainty around global trade policies and interest rates limited investors’ appetite for risk. Stocks struggled for traction as investors grappled with geopolitical tensions spurred by new government proposals in Italy, doubts about a coming meeting between the U.S. and North Korea and continuing trade talks with China. “There are a few fires at the moment that investors need to take on board,” said Olivier Marciot, a multiasset portfolio manager at Unigestion.

US STOCKS-Wall St posts weekly loss as banks, chipmakers weigh
The S&P 500 ended lower on Friday after a choppy trading session as bank and chipmaker stocks weighed on the index and investors grappled with U.S.-China trade talks. China denied accounts by some U.S. officials that it had offered a package to slash the U.S. trade deficit by up to $200 billion, but said the consultations were "constructive," in the latest salvo of tit-for-tat messages to emerge from the high-level meeting. Boeing Co shares rose on hopes for a reduction in the U.S.-China trade deficit, after an American source said the company would be major beneficiary of a narrowed trade gap.

Here’s why small-cap stocks can continue to beat their large-cap peers
Small-cap stocks are on a roll, hitting a string of records while their large-cap peers remain stuck in a narrow trading range, and the run of outsize gains may just be getting under way. The Russell 2000 (^RUT), the most popular index for small-cap stocks, has risen in 11 of the past 14 trading days, and it posted its third straight record close on Friday. Morgan Stanley said that the U.S. economy was in the later stages of its economic cycle, which it noted had historically been a weak period for small and midcap stocks in past cycles “because wage pressures and other costs tend to hit these companies harder as they have fewer levers to pull to offset” them.

US STOCKS-Wall St set for weekly loss as bank and chip stocks weigh
Bank and chipmaker stocks helped pull the S&P 500 into negative territory on Friday, capping a week of choppy trading as trade talks with China, rising U.S. government bond yields and increasing oil prices kept investors on edge.

US STOCKS-Wall St edges lower as bank, chip stocks weigh
Wall Street edged lower on Friday, weighed down by bank and chip shares as well as a handful of tepid earnings reports, although losses were capped by gains in industrial stocks on signs of progress in Sino-U.S. trade talks. China denied it had offered a package to slash the U.S. trade deficit by up to $200 billion, but dropped an anti-dumping probe into U.S. sorghum imports in a conciliatory gesture as top negotiators meet in Washington. A Chinese foreign ministry spokesman said the consultations were "constructive" as the world's two biggest economies are seeking to bridge a divide on trade issues.
