US Stocks Close Slightly Higher to End the Week, Fourth Winning Week in Five

US stocks closed the week of Friday, July 10, 2026 (19 Tir 1405) with modest gains after a volatile week. According to the Associated Press, the S&P 500 rose 0.1%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained about 140 points, and the Nasdaq Composite added 0.1%, giving the S&P 500 its fourth winning week in the last five.

Oil prices also held relatively steady on Friday, with Brent crude up 0.2%, even after unclaimed airstrikes hit Iran following Washington's earlier announcement that it had concluded its military strikes. The wire service reported that markets found relative calm after a volatile week driven by concerns over how the Iran-US war would affect the global flow of crude.
