• US equity markets extended their recovery from an early September sell-off on Friday (13 September), with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq recording their best weekly gains of 2024 - Dow rallied +297-points or +0.72%. Boeing Co shed 3.69% to be the worst performer in the 30-stock index after the aerospace company’s biggest union, the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers representing ~33K workers, went on strike after voting down a new, four-year labour deal. The strike will halt work on the company’s best-selling 737, 777, and 767 jets.
