S&P 500 Opens Lower After Shutdown Ends -- WSJ

Dow Jones11-13

 

By Ed Ballard

The U.S. government is now open after the record-long shutdown. Flight disruption may continue for a while, and investors await word from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and other agencies on when to expect backlogged economic data.

The reopening met with a muted market reaction. Stock indexes and the dollar inched lower Thursday morning, while Treasury yields rose.

The White House said late Wednesday that official inflation and employment data for October were unlikely to ever be published, surprising investors. The BLS is yet to comment.

Earnings rolled in from Walt Disney and a few others. Shares in the entertainment company fell, as TV declines offset streaming growth. But Cisco's stock eyed a record high after the cyber-networking company raised its outlook.

In recent trading:

The Swiss franc strengthened against the dollar on hopes for lower U.S. tariffs. President Trump said this week he was considering cutting levies on Swiss goods.

Precious metal futures rose, with silver at record highs.
