Stocks move higher, bitcoin jumps after futures launch

Yahoo Finance

Stocks (^DJI, ^GSPC, ^IXIC) are inching higher, as bitcoin jumps following the launch of bitcoin futures on the Cboe Futures Exchange. The energy (XLE) sector is most in the green, and the consumer staples (XLP) sector is most in the red. Keith Bliss of Cuttone and Company joins us live from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange to talk markets. To discuss the other big stories of the day, Yahoo Finance’s Seana Smith is joined by Yahoo Finance Editor-in-Chief Andy Serwer, Ethan Wolff-Mann and Melody Hahm. Seana also talks with celebrity shoe designer Ruthie Davis about her recent team-up with Disney for a princess-inspired adult shoe collection.
