Stock market wraps higher S&P and Dow hits a new record

The report shows that the number of jobs added by the U.S. economy is very few compared to the improvement on the social distancing restrictions.

The report stated that 266,000 jobs were brought back by employers, versus at least 1 million was expected in April.

Benchmark equities all wrap higher for the first time in 5 days. The Dow and S&P both recorded new all-time high and are on a four-day winning streak. NASDAQ ended higher for the first time in five days, after the April jobs report made a case to hold the possible increase in tax rates, allowing traders to again switch back to tech and growth stocks. This helped the market switch to the positive direction overall.
