Investors will gear up for the start of earnings season with the big banks kicking off results and the United Auto Workers strike against Detroit’s Big Three entering its fourth week. 

Stocks rose Friday and for the week after a stronger-than-expected September jobs report. 

A bulk of the gains came from the tech-heavy Nasdaq, which gained 1.6%.

On Friday, the UAW declined to expand the strike against GM, Ford and Stellantis, saying progress was being made. Additionally, fresh data from the Anderson Economic Group on how much the strike may cost the U.S. economy may be released.
