Electric car manufacturer Tesla, which on Thursday rose 22 percent after a quarterly report, continued to rise on Friday by 3.4 percent.

Tapestry, which owns Coach and Kate Spade, surged 13.5 percent, while sector colleague Capri, which owns fashion houses Jimmy Choo, Michael Kors, and Versace, fell by 48.8 percent – after a judge stopped a merger of the companies.
