Wall Street Is Rotating Out of the U.S. 💸 Are You Late?

U.S. stocks ended a choppy week on a mixed note Friday, pressured by Intel’s weak outlook and lingering geopolitical uncertainty tied to President Trump’s Greenland and trade rhetoric. 

The Dow fell about 0.6%, while the S&P 500 hovered near flat and the Nasdaq edged higher, even as Intel shares sank nearly 15% on disappointing guidance and a swing to a quarterly loss.

Investors also weighed signs of easing U.S.-China tensions, rising gold prices after a fresh record, and a gradual shift out of U.S. assets amid dollar weakness. 

With back-to-back weekly losses likely for the S&P 500, attention now turns to next week’s Federal Reserve meeting and Trump’s expected announcement of a new Fed chair.
