Article Context
The stock market cruised higher on Friday to wrap up its best week since April in the wake of the July jobs report. The yield on the 2-year Treasury note fell 4.2%, marking its biggest one-week decline since June. Bond prices move inversely to yields, so the stock market was following the bond market’s rally after the Labor Department said the U.S. economy subtracted 23,000 nonfarm jobs.
