The major stock indexes were all up on Friday to mark a fifth straight week of gains

Investors seem to have largely ignored the government shutdown as earnings reports and full-year forecasts have started to pour in. Late on Friday, a WSJ report that the Fed would maintain a larger portfolio of Treasury securities than expected also boosted sentiment. For the week, the S&P 500 fell 0.2% while the Dow and Nasdaq each inched 0.1% higher and the Russell 2000 finished flat. The two-year U.S. Treasury yield closed the week at 2.60% and the 10-year finished at 2.75%.
