Wall Street closes with new Nasdaq and S&P500 records

New York Stock Exchange closed higher on Thursday, driven by statements from Donald Trump on the Middle East conflict that were considered encouraging. AFP For the second consecutive session, the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 broke their listing records again, thanks to increases of 0.36% and 0.26% respectively, up to 24,102.70 points and 7,041.28 points. The Dow Jones climbed 0.24%. "Investors are pushing the move to see how far they can go," Patrick O’Hare of Briefing.com told AFP. The market benefits from what has been interpreted as "constructive signs" for an eventual end to the conflict in the Middle East, he added. U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday that Iran had agreed to hand over its enriched uranium, a key condition for a peace deal between Washington and Tehran. The Islamic Republic has not confirmed this information. "The future of peace in the Middle East remains uncertain... and caution persists," warned José Torres of Interactive Brokers. He cited the new increase in oil prices on Thursday as an example.
