  1. US Stocks Post Weekly Gains Despite Rising Yields and Volatile Oil

    Major US stock indexes closed higher to cap a volatile week marked by surging Treasury yields and fluctuating oil prices. The Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq notched weekly wins, with the Dow snapping its recent skid. Bond yields globally hit their highest levels in decades as investors navigated macroeconomic crosscurrents. Meanwhile, international markets experienced mixed trading and downward pressure following the bond sell-off and movements in crude markets.

President Donald Trump rejected an Iranian ceasefire proposal, which pushed oil prices higher and sent the 10-year Treasury yield above 5.2 percent.

    Still unconfirmed
