Stocks pull back on weak jobs gains
CNN
What an end to a tumultuous week on Wall Street. Friday kicked off with disappointing news as just 210,000 jobs were added last month, much lower than expected. Stocks initially opened higher before dipping into the red.
Investors were clearly hoping for better jobs numbers. After all, the Dow enjoyed its biggest point jump of the year on Thursday.
The Dow rose nearly 150 points shortly after the open but ended the day down about 60 points, or 0.2%. However, stocks did rebound from more severe losses: The Dow fell as much as 375 points earlier in the day.
