U.S. stocks closed the week higher, with most indexes snapping multi-week declines. Major indices rebounded on Friday after President Donald Trump said there would be some “flexibility” with tariffs. However, he maintained that the tariffs implemented at the April 2 deadline will be reciprocal, saying all countries that have tariffs on U.S. goods will be charged. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was the best weekly performer, advancing 1.2% while the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite was the worst-performing index during the week. Value outperformed growth for the fifth consecutive week, bringing its total year-to-date outperformance to 897 basis points.
