US stocks edged higher on Friday, setting the stage for strong weekly wins after Wall Street's expectations for a jumbo interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve shot up overnight. The S&P 500 moved up about 0.2%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite climbed just over the flat line to point to a fifth day of gains for both gauges amid a comeback for tech stocks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average also added roughly 0.2%.
