Stocks end mixed as tech rally stalls
On a mixed trading day in New York, the Nasdaq rose 47.36 to 2645.29 while blue chips slid 40.95 to 10373.54 and the S&P 500 edged up 0.23 to 1315.18. Traders cited a pre-election jury of risk as technology shares rebounded on bargain-hunting but rotated money from blue chips into tech amid caution. Corporate Dow components Merck and Procter & Gamble fell, while IBM and several chipmakers posted gains as analysts weighed continued tech weakness against possible December uptick.
