S&P 500 jumps 1.9% and Dow leaps 600, but not by enough to keep stocks from 4th straight losing week

U.S. stocks are rallying Friday, though not by enough to keep Wall Street from heading toward a fourth straight losing week, which would be its longest such streak since August. It's on track for its best day since the day after President Donald Trump's election, when Wall Street was focusing mostly on the possibility for lower taxes and other benefits for corporate profits. A multi-day “relief rally could be coming” after so much negativity built among investors, said Yung-Yu Ma, chief investment officer at BMO Wealth Management.

Asia hedge funds outperform US peers as markets sell off

HONG KONG (Reuters) -Asia hedge funds weathered the March selloff in markets better than their U.S. counterparts, helped by the relative outperformance of Chinese stocks as global investors rushed into that market. Asia-focused hedge funds posted an average 0.71% loss this month until the 10th, compared with a 2.6% drop for their U.S. peers and a 1.7% drop for global peers, a Morgan Stanley prime brokerage note dated March 12 shows.

Oil prices set to end week stable as investors mull path to Ukraine ceasefire

NEW YORK (Reuters) -Oil prices edged higher on Friday after a more than 1% loss in the previous session, as investors weighed the diminishing prospects of a quick end to the Ukraine war that could bring back more Russian energy supplies to Western markets. Brent crude futures were up 36 cents, or 0.52%, to $70.24 a barrel at 11:30 a.m. EDT (1530 GMT), after settling 1.5% lower in the previous session. Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that Moscow supported a U.S. proposal for a ceasefire in Ukraine in principle, but sought a number of clarifications and conditions that appeared to rule out a quick end to the fighting.

German bond yields jump, stocks surge as parties agree seismic spending plans

LONDON (Reuters) -German government bond yields, equities and the euro all rose on Friday on reports Germany's Chancellor-in-waiting Friedrich Merz had reached an agreement with the Greens to reform debt rules and massively increase state borrowing. Merz's conservatives and the Social Democrats, who are in negotiations to form a government after an election last month, had proposed a 500 billion euro fund for infrastructure and sweeping changes to borrowing rules to revive growth and ramp up military spending. To reach the two-thirds majority required for the necessary constitutional changes, though, they need the support of the Greens.
