The S&P 500 approached 6,400. A gauge of the “Magnificent Seven” megacaps also hit a record. Apple Inc. saw its best week since 2020 as plans to spend an additional $100 billion on domestic manufacturing may help the company avoid tariffs. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac soared on reports the US is preparing to sell shares in an offering that could start as early as this year.
The yield on 10-year Treasuries rose three basis points to 4.28%. The dollar barely budged. Oil fluctuated. The Trump administration suggested it would issue a new policy clarifying that imports of gold bars should not face tariffs.
