A temporary U.S.–China trade truce and a series of U.S.–Middle East deals eased stagnation fears and drew bulls into the market.

The week’s winners were companies whose earnings exceeded analysts’ estimates, while pharmaceutical and health care stocks continued to decline.

Both indices reached their longest winning streak in more than two decades, fueled by strong tech earnings and job gains.
