MannKind leaps, Dean Foods slumps
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- The U.S. stock market opened higher on Monday, boosted by a calmer geopolitical scene as well as dovish remarks from a top Federal Reserve official.
The S&P 500 (SPX) opened 6 points, or 0.3%, at 1,937.85, with all 10 sectors in positive territory. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) added 41 points, or 0.3%, to 16,593.13.
The Nasdaq Composite (RIXF) began the session with a gain of 18 points, or 0.4%, at 4,389.66.
The economic calendar is empty, and investors focused on a speech by Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer.
In prepared comments for delivery at a conference in Stockholm, Fischer said rebounds across advanced economies have been disappointing, leading many observers, including the Fed, to reduce their long-term expectations for growth potential in the U.S. Also read: Fischer says Larry Summers could be right.
In geopolitical news, there was relative calm in Ukraine and the Middle East. On Saturday, rebel fighters in Ukraine said they were ready for a cease-fire. Meanwhile, Palenstians and Israelis agreed on a ceasefire in Gaza that was holding on Monday.
