U.S. stocks capped the longest string of weekly gains since 2013 as Apple Inc. results and strong services sector data added to optimism in the economy. The dollar rose, while Treasuries edged higher as the latest jobs report did little to alter views on the timing for higher interest rates.

The S&P 500 Index finished higher for an eighth week as Apple jumped 2.6 percent to a record. The Cboe Volatility Index headed for the lowest close on record. The dollar added to gains after the services sector looked robust. The 10-year Treasury yield slipped to 2.33 percent. Crude topped $55 a barrel on reports Mexico’s state-owned oil company made a major discovery. An index of emerging-market currencies declined the most in a month amid Venezuela’s plan to restructure its debt.

Payrolls data provided a mixed picture of the strength of the labor market, though distortions from the hurricanes in August made it difficult to draw firm conclusions. Based on fed fund futures, the odds for a rate hike in December were unchanged at a high level. Investors are also weighing the impact of House Republican leaders’ sweeping tax plan, which includes lowering the corporate tax rate to 20 percent from 35 percent.

Meanwhile, President Nicolas Maduro said Venezuela will seek to restructure its global debt after the state oil company makes one more payment. While the risk of contagion is low, an index of emerging-market currencies declined for the first time this week.
