Bay Area stocks were trying for a second-straight day of gains on Wall Street Friday, as Apple, Netflix and Intel edged into positive territory following Gov. Gavin Newsom issuing a shelter-in-place order for all of California as part of the ongoing effort to stop the spread of coronavirus.
Newsom’s order, which took effect Thursday night, requires all businesses that don’t provide “essential services” to close their doors for the foreseeable future. Grocery stores, banks, hospitals and health care facilities, gas stations and some other businesses are allowed to remain open, and restaurants are allowed to offer take out service.
