The Closing Bell: Stocks Drift Higher Dow And S&P Hit Record Highs

edited February 2017 in The Bullpen
FYI: The major U.S. stock indexes veered slightly higher in afternoon trading Monday after spending much of the morning wavering between small gains and losses. Investors were looking ahead to President Donald Trump's speech to Congress on Tuesday for details of promised tax cuts and infrastructure spending. Energy stocks led the gainers as the price of crude rose. Phone companies lagged the most.
