(Reuters) – Wall Street’s main indexes opened higher on Friday after data pointing to slowing job growth boosted expectations that the Federal Reserve was done with its rate hikes, while Apple shares slipped on a weak holiday-quarter forecast.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 149.75 points, or 0.44%, at the open to 33,988.83. The S&P 500 opened higher by 16.45 points, or 0.38%, at 4,334.23, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 68.66 points, or 0.52%, to 13,362.85 at the opening bell.
