GLOBAL MARKETS-Wall Street posts weekly gains, Treasury yields jump as upbeat jobs data ease economic fears

By Stephen Culp

NEW YORK, June 6 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks closed sharply higher on Friday and U.S. Treasury yields jumped as a generally upbeat employment report and bounce-back in Tesla TSLA.O shares helped the indexes notch weekly advances.

All three major U.S. stock indexes surged, while bitcoin jumped and crude prices settled at their highest level since mid-April.

"Stocks bounced back nicely today," said Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group in Omaha. "It's a recent theme we've been seeing; the day after a red day has been pretty strong. That's another clue that the bulls are in charge."

The U.S. economy added 139,000 jobs in May, topping analysts' expectations, while the unemployment rate held firm at 4.2%, the Labor Department said. The report also showed hotter-than-anticipated wage growth, which is unlikely to convince the U.S. Federal Reserve to cut its key policy rate in the near term.

"The headline number was solid, but clearly there is some deterioration and slowing when you peel back the onion," Detrick added. "The reality, though, is the labor market is still growing and the overall economy is still on fairly firm footing. That led to the relief rally to close out a solid week."

Tesla stock TSLA.O rebounded 3.8% a day after a very public spat between U.S. President Donald Trump and his top advisor, billionaire Elon Musk, sent shares of Musk-helmed Tesla tumbling, which helped drag the indexes decisively lower.

The falling out between the erstwhile allies revived concerns over Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" of tax and spending plans and its effect on the growing deficit.

Tariff negotiations between the U.S. and its trading partners remain fluid, with the European Union and India working toward ironing out deals, and further U.S.-China talks promised after Trump's phone call on Thursday with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

China has granted temporary export licenses to rare-earth suppliers of the top three U.S. automakers amid emerging supply chain snags due to Beijing's export curbs on the materials. On the flip side, the United States has suspended licenses for nuclear equipment suppliers to sell to Chinese power plants, according to people familiar with the matter.

European shares followed their U.S. counterparts higher after the jobs report, notching their second consecutive weekly gains, buoyed by upbeat U.S. employment data and waning worries over trade disputes.

The report also prompted a rally in cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin BTC= gained 3.80% to $104,334.11. Ethereum ETH= rose 3.7% to $2,487.77.

U.S. Treasury yields also rode the wave of the upbeat jobs data.

Crude prices registered their first weekly gain in three after Trump and Xi resumed trade talks, raising hopes of demand growth.

U.S. crude CLc1 rose 1.91% to settle at $64.58 per barrel, while Brent LCOc1 settled at $66.47 per barrel, up 1.73% on the day.

Gold prices dipped in opposition to the strengthening greenback, as the jobs report clouded the outlook for rate cuts from the Federal Reserve.
