S&P 500 ends up, but near flat for week


The Dow rose 51.05 points, or 0.13%, to 39,497.54, the S&P 500 gained 24.85 points, or 0.47%, to 5,344.16 and the Nasdaq added 85.28 points, or 0.51%, to 16,745.30.

NEW YORK: The S&P 500 ended higher on Friday and was little-changed for the week after regaining almost all of its losses since Monday's steep dive that was prompted by fears of a recession and unwinding of a global yen-funded carry trade.

The technology sector gave the index its biggest boost on Friday, and the Cboe Volatility Index, Wall Street's "fear gauge," fell after surging at the start of the week.
