Shares of Fabrinet (NYSE: FN) were up on Thursday. The leg up came amid broader market weakness, with the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) down 1.4% and the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) down 2.1%. The company, which manufactures precision optical equipment critical to modern data centers, announced a strategic partnership with Amazon in which the tech giant will purchase Fabrinet stock.
The San Francisco-based company said it had profit of 39 cents per share. Earnings, adjusted for one-time gains and costs, came to 86 cents per share. The results surpassed Wall Street expectations.
NEW YORK (Reuters) -For the first time in over a year, the U.S. stock market is in a correction. The benchmark stock index closed down more than 10% from its February 19 closing high, meeting the widely used definition of a correction. The S&P 500's slide follows a similar drop for the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite index, which last week confirmed it was in a correction.
All three of the US market averages (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) are back in the red at Thursday's market close, the Nasdaq leading losses as it dropped 1.96%.
