After starting the day on a more somber note, the S&P 500 is up 0.1%, while the Nasdaq is up 0.5%. Friday's gains followed the indexes each rising for the past four consecutive trading days.The Dow Jones Industrial Average, meanwhile, was down 0.4%.

Goldman Sachs, Home Depot, and Sherwin-Williams were among Friday's Dow decliners.
