Stocks surge Friday to cap volatile week

After a weak open Friday morning, stocks on both sides of the border rallied and closed on session highs to conclude a wild week. Again, tech stocks were the focus as the Nasdaq barely climbed into the positive for the week, which saw a 7% move.

The Nasdaq surged 3.13% on Friday to 13,770, propelled by Apple and Visa which both reported blowout earnings late Thursday and soared nearly 7% and 10.57% respectively. Meanwhile, the S&P jumped 2.44% (barely positive for the week) and the Dow swung 800 points during the day to finish 1.66% higher. Notable gainers: Amazon 2.88%, Alphabet 3.08%, Chipotle 4.76% and Mastercard 8.85%. Laggards: Caterpillar -5.19%, 3M -4.14%, Chevron -3.47% and Western Digital -7.32%. The U.S. 10-year yield slipped to 1.7822% while Bitcoin rose over 5% to nearly $38,000.

The TSX saw more modest gains of 0.68% but added 120 points for the week. Only the materials lagged, while tech ripped the highest. Gainers: Hexo 8.33%, Kinaxis 7.4%, Organigram 7.19%, Shopify 7.11% and Arc Resources 6.88%. Losing ground were Teck Resources at -3.59%, Copper Mountain Mining -2.96% and Turquoise Hill Resources -3.92%. Oil continued to climb higher as WTI crude gained 0.8% psat $87 a barrel though WCS was flat around $74.30. Meanwhile, gold dipped below $1,800 an ounce, down 0.4%. Investors are bracing themselves for continued volatility next week, though more key earnings may lift markets like Friday and some wonder if we are hitting a bottom.
