US: Wall St opens higher but indexes on track for weekly losses

[NEW YORK] US stocks rebounded on Friday (Mar 14), but all three main indexes were on track for weekly declines following a selloff earlier in the week, triggered by fears of a growth slowdown due to the Trump administration’s erratic trade policies.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 244.0 points, or 0.60 per cent, at the open to 41,057.57.

The S&P 500 rose 42.3 points, or 0.77 per cent, at the open to 5,563.85​, while the Nasdaq Composite rose 220.3 points, or 1.27 per cent, to 17,523.3 at the opening bell. REUTERS
