Here’s where the major benchmarks ended:
- The S&P 500 index rose 43.37 points (0.9%) to 5,010.60; the Dow Jones Industrial Average® ($DJI) gained 253.58 points (0.7%) to 38,239.98; the NASDAQ Composite advanced 169.30 points (1.1%) to 15,451.31.
- The 10-year Treasury note yield (TNX) was little changed at 4.617%.
- The CBOE Volatility Index® (VIX) fell 1.41 to 16.39.
Chipmaker strength lifted the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOX) up 1.7% Monday, partially reclaiming last week’s 9.2% tumble. Banking shares were also among the strongest sectors, while the Russell 2000® Index (RUT) advanced 1%. WTI crude futures earlier dropped to just a few cents above $82 per barrel, the lowest intraday price since late March.
