NEW YORK (dpa-AFX) – Hopes for progress in the Ukraine conflict supported the US stock market at the start of the week. The Dow Jones Industrial (Dow Jones 30 Industrial) gained 0.93 percent in early trade to 33,250.34 points. Due to a time change that has already taken place in the USA, trading in New York is one hour earlier than usual this week in European time.
The technology-heavy NASDAQ 100, which was slowed by price declines in the US notes of Chinese tech companies, rose more subduedly by 0.14 percent to 13,322.69 points. The market-wide S&P 500, on the other hand, rose by 0.67 percent to 4232.56 points. In Europe, there had been even more significant price gains. The fear of the economic consequences of the war had recently made itself felt there more than on the US stock exchanges.
Around two and a half weeks after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the fourth negotiations between the two states began on Monday – this time via video link. Both sides exchanged positions, Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhailo Podoliak wrote on Twitter at the start of the week. But communication is difficult. So far, however, there has been no breakthrough./tih/jha/
