Stock market fully recovers from Brexit losses

By Around the Web

(The Hill) The U.S. stock market has completely recovered from the shock of June’s Brexit vote.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday up 250 points, putting it at a level above where the market stood before the British referendum upended the globe.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq also posted similarly strong gains.

Friday’s gains were boosted by a stronger than expected jobs report. The Labor Department reported Friday morning that the economy added 287,000 in June. The number was well above economist expectations, and tamped down concern over a dismal May report.
