S&P 500 Index opens flat, tech shares underperform

  • Wall Street's main indexes trade mixed on Friday.
  • Falling technology stocks weigh on Nasdaq ahead of the weekend.

Major equity indexes started the last day of the week mixed amid varying performances of major sectors. As of writing, the S&P 500 was virtually unchanged on the day at 4,549, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 0.15% at 35,657 and the Nasdaq Composite was down 0.3% at 15,168.

Pressured by the large losses witnessed in Twitter Inc and Facebook shares, the Communication Services Index is down more than 1% after the opening bell. On the other hand, the Financials Index is rising 0.8% as the best-performing sector in the early trade.

Later in the session, FOMC Chairman Jerome Powell will be speaking at a panel discussion on monetary challenges in the wake of COVID. The IHS Markit will release the preliminary Services and Manufacturing PMIs as well.
