11:44Now PlayingComprehensive cross-platform coverage of the U.S. market close on Bloomberg Television, Bloomberg Radio, and YouTube with Romaine Bostick, Scarlet Fu, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec.
Stocks posted modest gains on Monday as concerns mounted about a looming US government shutdown possibly delaying the release of key labor-market data that could provide clues about how fast the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates. Treasury yields fell across the curve.
The S&P 500 ended the session 0.3% higher. The Nasdaq 100 rose 0.4% after climbing nearly 1% earlier. The Bloomberg dollar index pared earlier losses after pending home sales for August jumped to the highest level in five months.
The US Treasury 10-year yield declined to 4.14% — shutdowns are typically associated with gains for bonds because of their potential to restrain the economy. Gold, a safe-haven asset, hit a record.
Investors are worried that the threat of a US government shutdown could hinder some crucial data releases that they require to discern how the US economy is doing. That includes Friday’s nonfarm payrolls report, which would offer details on how the labor market is holding up and help the Fed decide how many more times to cut rates this year.
