(Reuters) - Wall Street's main indexes opened higher on Friday, helped by gains in Nike and Facebook, after steep losses a day earlier on fears of a global trade war after the United States slapped tariffs on Chinese imports.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 92.38 points, or 0.39 percent, to 24,050.27. The S&P 500 gained 7.43 points, or 0.281047 percent, to 2,651.12. The Nasdaq Composite added 11.61 points, or 0.16 percent, to 7,178.28.
