US stocks edge higher, regrouping after a down week
The Associated Press
Stocks managed to end a wobbly day mostly higher on Wall Street Monday as the market regroups after its biggest weekly drop since June.
The S&P 500 shook off an afternoon slump and edged up 0.2%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.8% and the Nasdaq slipped 0.1%.
Financial and energy stocks climbed, helping to make up for losses in health care. Energy companies benefited from higher prices for oil and natural gas.
Benchmark crude oil rose 1% to close above $70 a barrel for the first time since early August.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury fell to 1.32%.
