Wall Street starts the first session of the year up

(New York) The New York Stock Exchange started 2023 by opening higher, after a long weekend and a lackluster week of weak trading that ended a bad year for equities.


The Dow Jones index was up 0.16%, the NASDAQ 0.71% and the S&P 500 0.38% within minutes of opening.

The indices ended the week down 0.17% for the Dow Jones, 0.14% for the S&P 500 and 0.3% for the NASDAQ. The year 2022, meanwhile, was the worst since 2008: the Dow Jones fell by almost 9%, the S&P 500 by almost 19% and the NASDAQ, where many technology stocks are concentrated, fell by 33%.

More details to come.
