Stocks climbed as dip buyers appeared after the market slide and traders awaited developments on U.S. stimulus talks. Technology stocks again rode to Wall Street’s rescue on Friday, as late-session rally clinches Nasdaq’s first weekly gain since August. It was the best day for the major averages since Sept. 9.: Four-week losing streak for Dow, S&P 500 is longest since August 2019. After the close of regular trading, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s spokesman said that she talked with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin Friday regarding a relief package, and they agreed to continue their conversation.

But analysts said the path to an agreement remained unclear, while jitters are rising over the prospect of a contested presidential election on Nov. 3 that could leave the outcome of the contest in limbo for weeks.
The VIX, which reflects investor expectations for S&P 500 volatility in the coming 30 days, stands just below 30, above its long-term average near 20, after jumping to nearly 36 earlier this month as tech stocks kicked off a sharp market pullback.
