The Dow Jones Industrial Average experienced its longest losing streak since February 2020, declining for seven consecutive sessions. The index fell 86.06 points, or 0.20%, to close at 43,828.06 on Friday. Despite this, the S&P 500 remained virtually unchanged, closing at 6,051.09, while the Nasdaq Composite managed a slight gain of 23.88 points, or 0.12%, ending at 19,926.72. The market's performance was influenced by anticipation of the Federal Reserve's policy meeting next week and reactions to recent hot economic data. Broadcom Inc. saw its shares surge over 24%, pushing its market capitalization above $1 trillion for the first time, driven by strong demand for its custom AI chips and an optimistic revenue forecast. Investors are also factoring in the potential impact of Donald Trump's presidential election victory on corporate profitability.
