Friday’s S&P 500 index futures session closed out the week with a modest gain, as buyers staged a late-day rebound that helped trim earlier losses across major benchmarks.
Overnight trading was mixed, with futures climbing to a high of 6,772 before slipping to 6,655 ahead of the open. The regular session opened around 6,763 and quickly turned lower through mid-morning as sellers tested support near 6,660.
Momentum shifted in the afternoon as dip-buyers stepped in, driving a steady climb back toward the upper end of the day’s range. Futures finished near session highs, closing at 6,753, up 6.25 handles or 0.09%.
Despite Friday’s late-week recovery, the S&P 500 futures contract still ended the week down roughly 1.6%.
Among the top components of the index, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.B) led as the biggest gainer. The conglomerate advanced $5.91, or 1.20%, to close at $499.06 for the day.
That performance was roughly 13× stronger than the broader market’s 0.09% advance.
The biggest loser ended up being Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA). For the day, the EV maker declined $16.39, or 3.68%, to close at $429.52.
