How major US stock indexes fared Friday

Stocks closed higher on Wall Street Friday, capping another solid week of gains for the market, after a big rebound in hiring last month eased concerns that the U.S. economy is slowing too sharply.

Health care, energy and technology companies accounted for much of the broad rally, which extended the S&P 500’s consecutive run of gains to its seventh day, the longest winning streak in a year and a half.
