The New York Stock Exchange closed higher on Thursday, driven by the announcement of a commercial agreement between the United States and the United Kingdom, which generated hopes for a broader relaxation of the commercial offensive launched by President Donald Trump with new tariffs. The main Wall Street index, the Dow Jones Industrial, rose 0.62%, while the technology-heavy Nasdaq climbed 1.07% and the broad-based S&P 500, 0.58%. "A commercial agreement, even if it's a principle of agreement, is what the markets were waiting for," said Chris Zaccarelli, an analyst at Northlight Asset Management. Trump announced today a first truce in his global commercial offensive with a "historic" commitment to London, although the details of the text indicate a rather limited scope. This pact, negotiated over several weeks, will allow the United Kingdom to open up to American products valued at "several billion dollars," according to the Republican magnate. "The United Kingdom may be the first of many dominoes to fall, the first of many commercial agreements that can be reached," declared AFP's Sam Stovall, a CFRA expert. "If the government can achieve more agreements in the process, it will contribute significantly to calming a stock market that has been shaken this year," added Zaccarelli. Trump assured that both China and the European Union (EU) want to reach agreements with him. In the US bond market, the yield on 10-year notes rose significantly, to 4.39%, from 4.27% at the close of Wednesday. As for indicators, weekly jobless claims fell from the previous period and were below analysts' expectations.
