Wendy's Weekly STOCK MARKET Report "Market indexes closed the week moderately higher" Presented by Wendy Nelson
Market Week: September 7, 2026
The Markets (as of market close September 4, 2026)
Most of the major market indexes closed the week moderately higher, despite a late-week pullback. Investors had to weigh strong corporate earnings and economic resilience against concerns that the Federal Reserve may hike interest rates later this month following the unexpectedly robust jobs report (see below). Market sectors were mixed, with energy and communication services posting gains, while industrials, materials, and real estate lagged. Treasury yields moved higher last Friday after the release of the jobs report. Crude oil prices climbed nearly 9.5% last week as tensions between the U.S. and Iran continued to drive market sentiment.
