Analyst Update: Recognitions, Quarterly Results, and Appointments

Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA®  

The U.S. stocks ended lower on Friday, sending the S&P 500 index to its biggest monthly decline in a year, as an unexpected deceleration in the U.S. fourth quarter GDP growth raised concerns over the health of world's biggest economy, curbing appeal of the risky assets. A Commerce Department data on Friday showed that the U.S. economy grew at a slower-than-expected 2.6% annualized rate in the fourth quarter versus a 5% growth in the third quarter as businesses curbed spending while trade deficit widened. The Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 1.45% to close at 17,164.95, the S&P 500 fell 1.30% to close at 1,994.99, and the Nasdaq Composite slipped 1.03% to end at 4,635.24. European equities also ended lower on Friday as data showed that consumer prices in the euro area fell more than the forecasts in January, highlighting the challenges that European Central Bank faces in its battle with deflation. Meanwhile, Asian stocks edged up on Friday, taking cues from the Wall Street where stocks rose on back of strong earnings.

Papa Murphy's Holdings Inc. (Papa Murphy's) announced that it has been named a Chain Restaurant Consumers' Choice Award winner for 2015 in the Technomic's Consumer Brand Metrics program.
