NEW YORK (dpa-AFX) – The recent recovery rally on Wall Street continued more cautiously on Wednesday. The central role on the stock markets continued to be played by Europe’s gas supply and the associated concerns about international consequences that investors couldn’t get out of their heads. Supported by good news from the Netflix streaming service, however, the technology stocks on the Nasdaq stock market were positive.
The leading index Dow Jones Industrial (Dow Jones 30 Industrial) had a hard time with it, in the end it rose by 0.15 percent to 31,874.84 points. The market-wide S&P 500 rose somewhat more clearly by 0.59 percent to 3959.90 points. The NASDAQ 100 rose particularly significantly by 1.55 percent to 12,439.68 points. For all three indices, it had been enough for the highest level in almost six weeks.
The euphoria that rumors about a continuation of Russian natural gas deliveries had triggered the day before was now mixed with a little more skepticism, which was particularly evident in the standard values. In addition to the first indications of delivery quantities, there were also renewed warnings from Moscow, so it remained unclear how much gas will actually flow through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline from Thursday./tih/he
