The Dow opened flat on Friday, as data showing an unexpected jump in U.S. growth in January fanned fears around inflation, countering a boost from Amazon's results at the end of a volatile week.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 15.4 points, or 0.04%, at the open to 35,095.74.

The S&P 500 rose 5.4 points, or 0.12%, at the open to 4482.79, while the Nasdaq Composite rose 79.7 points, or 0.57%, to 13958.482 at the opening bell.
