S&P REPORT DOW

Why it matters

The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped as the November jobs report showed mixed results, with the US economy adding 263,000 jobs, but wages growing at a slower pace than expected. This has left investors uncertain ahead of the inflation report, which is expected to provide more clarity on the economic outlook. The mixed jobs data has led to a cautious approach on Wall Street.
