US close: Dow Jones turns in seventh-straight losing session
Major indices delivered a mixed performance on Friday as the blue-chip Dow Jones turned in its seventh-consecutive losing session.
At the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.20% at 43,828.06, while the S&P 500 was flat at 6,051.09, and the Nasdaq Composite saw out the session 0.12% firmer at 19,926.72.
The Dow closed 86.06 points lower on Friday, extending losses recorded in the previous session after last month's producer price index came in hotter than expected.
On Friday's macro slate, US import prices rose more or less as expected last month on the back of dearer energy. According to the US Department of Labor, in seasonally adjusted terms, import prices edged up at a month-on-month pace of 0.1%. Economists had forecast a decline of 0.2%.
Export prices, on the other hand, were unchanged versus October, held back by a 0.4% drop in agricultural export prices.
In the corporate space, Broadcom shares were up more than 24% after the chipmaker topped Q4 adjusted earnings estimates overnight as AI revenues surged 220% year-on-year.
No major earnings were released on Friday.
