All three major indexes closed out a Fed-fueled week with their seventh-consecutive weekly wins, the Dow's longest streak of such nature since 2019 and the S&P 500's best streak since 2017. The Dow also added to its streak of record closes today, finishing the day strong alongside the Nasdaq, while the S&P 500 remained flat. Elsewhere, the smaller, tech-focused Nasdaq-100 Index (NDX) closed at record highs.
