Wall Street Worries After Mueller's Russian Indictments
- 6 years ago
The S&P 500 rose marginally on Friday. It marked its biggest weekly increase in five years. Earlier gains did evaporate after the indictment of Russians for meddling in the 2016 presidential election. The news sent investors into defensive mode before a long weekend. The office of U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller charged 13 Russian nationals and three Russian companies, who are all accused of interfering with U.S. elections in an effort to support then-candidate Donald Trump.
