US stocks rise as the bond market's big swings ease a bit

AP News NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stocks are rising Friday and trimming their losses from what’s been a shaky week.

AP News NEW YORK (AP) — Top-ranked Jannik Sinner withdrew from the U.S. Open on Friday, unable to recover from a right knee injury that has sidelined him since winning the Wimbledon title.

He wrote Friday that he won't be ready when the main draw begins on Aug. 30.

“Even though I have been working hard with my team and my medical staff, we have now had...
