  "account": "Major stock indexes closed lower on Friday, despite tech shares remaining relatively stable. Brent crude oil reached its highest level in nearly six months following Houthi attacks in Saudi Arabia. European shares also ended the day on a negative note. The Nasdaq experienced a slight decline. The semiconductor index saw a 0.4% increase. The S&P 500 technology index gained 0.4%, while the S&P 500 energy sector rose by 2.5%, hitting a record high. Houthi attacks in Saudi Arabia sparked concerns over potential disruptions to energy supplies from the Middle East. Oil prices rose, with Brent crude settling at $116.72 a barrel, up $3.55 or 3.14% since April 29, and US West Texas Intermediate crude closing at $103.27 a barrel, up $3.80 or 3.8%. The US 10-year Treasury yield rose, with the benchmark 10-year yield posting its biggest one-day drop in nearly four years. Analysts note lingering concerns about the sustainability of AI-related stock rally gains.",
