US equity markets finished mostly higher on Thursday, with both the Nasdaq and S&P 500 bringing a three-day losing streak to an end as investors digested fresh commentary from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and a raft of interest-rate hikes from global central banks - Dow fell -4-points or -0.01% with Boeing Company leading the losses down -3.05% after Spirit AeroSystems (-9.43%) said that its unionized workers have voted for a strike, which is causing Spirit to suspend factory operations. Boeing Company has now fallen -6.5% for the week.
