    January 31, 2026, 3:17 AM EST. Major U.S. stock indexes closed lower on Friday, with the S&P 500 down 0.43%, Dow Jones Industrials 0.36%, and Nasdaq 100 falling 1.28%. The market reacted to President Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Federal Reserve Chair, signaling a more hawkish stance on interest rates.
