Stocks (the week, not today). Wall Street is closed until Monday, so there are no Saturday stock moves. Friday's closes: the Nasdaq Composite rose 1.09% to 24,579.42, the S&P 500 rose 0.31% to 7,376.86 and the Dow fell 0.46% to 51,285.73. Over the week the Nasdaq lost 3.4%, the S&P 500 2.7% and the Dow 0.9%, CNBC says. It was the S&P 500's worst week since April 2025. On Thursday about $2.5 trillion left the Nasdaq as investors feared tougher rules for AI data centers after the US midterms: https://freekonomist.com/en/news/ai-stock-sell-off-explained-2-5-trillion-week-2026-11-07/ . On Saturday Berkshire Hathaway reported operating earnings of $12.7 billion and $9.6 billion of buybacks in the quarter: https://freekonomist.com/en/news/berkshire-hathaway-q3-2026-earnings-buybacks-9-6-billion-2026-11-07/

Commodities and currencies (Friday close, markets shut). Brent January futures settled at $98.32 on Friday, up 0.03%. Reuters said Brent was on track for a weekly fall of about 17%, the steepest since the start of the pandemic. An earlier Reuters note put it at 12% after the December contract expired, and CNBC said 16%, so the size depends on the count. WTI was down 12% on the week (CNBC). Gold futures settled 0.9% lower at $4,074.90 on Friday as the dollar and yields rose. The euro closed at $1.1143 (-0.67%), the pound at $1.3356 (-0.71%) and the dollar at 158.425 yen (+0.49%). Over the weekend Trump said Iran talks are advancing, and Iranian media reported explosions on Qeshm Island. Lagarde said euro area inflation will stay high and that only significant changes in the data would alter the ECB's course: https://freekonomist.com/en/news/lagarde-yomiuri-interview-inflation-high-december-hike-ecb-2026-11-07/ .
