Like use, investors were a little checked out yesterday, focusing on the eclipse or maybe the fact that earnings season starts later this week, and stocks were relatively flat. Diamondback Energy hit an all-time high following several other energy companies that did so last week as oil prices surge.
Here’s where the major benchmarks ended:
- The S&P 500® index (SPX) lost 1.95 points (0.04%) to 5,202.39; the Dow Jones Industrial Average® ($DJI) eased 11.24 points (0.03%) to 38,892.80; the NASDAQ Composite® ($COMP) gained 5.44 points (0.03%) to 16,253.96.
- The 10-year Treasury note yield rose more than 4 basis points to 4.422%.
- The CBOE Volatility Index® (VIX) fell 0.84 to 15.19.
Bank shares were among Monday’s strongest performers, sending the KBW Regional Banking Index (KRX) up 1.5%. Consumer discretionary companies were also strong. WTI Crude Oil (/CL) futures fell sharply earlier in the session following reports Israel had removed some troops from Gaza but bounced back to end down 0.5% at around $86.47 per barrel.
