It’s National Nurses Week and National Student Nurses Day. We at the ME-P salute all the nurses (and future nurses) who read and inform our stories, and all of those who’ve been on the front-lines of the pandemic. We hope you take some time to kick back or at least slip into some comfortable shoes.

Here’s where the major indexes ended:
- The S&P 500® Index was up 1.87 points at 4138.12; the Dow Jones industrial average was down 55.69 (0.2%) at 33,618.69; the NASDAQ Composite was up 21.50 (0.2%) at 12,256.92.
- The 10-year Treasury yield was up about 7 basis points at 3.515%.
- CBOEs Volatility Index was down 0.2 at 16.99.
Among S&P 500 sectors, financial and energy companies were top gainers, with the latter getting some help from a more than 2% rally in WTI crude oil futures.
Transportation, utility and industrial stocks were among the weakest performers, and the Russell 2000 was down about 0.3%, reflecting continued weakness in small-caps.
