The U.S. stock market endured quite a bit of volatility last week.

The U.S. economy remained resilient in 2025. Despite a cooling labor market, a weak housing sector, and uncertainty around tariff policy, the economy continued to grow, supported by steady spending, AI-driven investment, and lower interest rates. 

Wall Street responded to mixed economic data by closing higher last week. The Dow reached a record high, ending the week well above the 49,000 milestone, surpassing that mark for the first time in its history.
