Wall Street jumped on Friday. Still, down for the week

Last Friday, Wall Street closed with gains, and its main indicator, the Dow Jones Industrials, gained 1.06%. It was the second day of increases after the drops at the beginning of the week due to fear of the rise in inflation.

The Dow Jones Industrials underwent its worst day since January on Wednesday. It lost 1.99%, and throughout the week, it accumulated a fall of 0.88%. The S&P 500 decreased by 0.72%, and the Nasdaq index lost 0.42%.

Wall Street was alarmed by the rise in inflation in the US, which was stronger than expected. Fears that the Federal Reserve could withdraw stimulus measures prematurely increased stock sales. 

Experts believe that the rise of eight-tenths in consumer prices last month is one more sign that the US economy is reopening. It is generating strong demand that supply is not able to absorb, especially services and goods. Now experts look at the central bank.

Still, those fears seemed to disappear at the end of last week. Several Federal Reserve officials assured that the central bank had no intentions to end the incentives.
