WTI Crude, Gold, HSI, Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq

All major averages finished the week higher for three straight weeks of gains, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising to a record close.

The S&P 500 edged lower by 0.1% to 4,544.90 a day after the benchmark closed at a record. 

Still, things may still seem a little uncertain for investors looking toward the end of the year due to cost pressures, labor shortages and commentary from company management on earnings calls and comments from Fed chair Jerome Powell and other policymakers — even with the S&P 500 up 20% for the year, Stephen Kolano, chief investment officer of BNY Mellon Investor Solutions, told CNBC.

U.S. stock futures were mixed Friday, with tech stocks under pressure and the 10-year Treasury yield trading at May highs above 1.69% before pulling back some. The S&P 500 on Thursday closed at a record and extended its run of winning sessions to seven. 

The Nasdaq, which also advanced, was about 1% away from its Sept. 7 record close. 

Several tech stocks rose to all-time highs. Tesla shares extended their rally, rising 1.7% after hitting a new intraday high earlier in the morning. The electric vehicle maker’s shares also closed at a record level: $909.68. Tesla closed 3.2% higher Thursday after posting record profit and revenue, along with strong margins. Netflix, Ebay and Microsoft also touched new all-time highs during Friday’s trading session.
