Stocks edged a bit lower on Wall Street as the first week of corporate earnings season closes out with markets trading near record levels.
The S&P 500 slipped 0.1% Friday after a day of wavering between gains and losses. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.2%, and the Nasdaq composite fell 0.1%.
Gains for several big tech companies helped offset weakness elsewhere.
A handful of regional U.S. banks reported their earnings following mixed reports from their larger peers. Pittsburgh’s PNC jumped after it beat Wall Street’s fourth-quarter targets, but Regions Financial fell after reporting results that missed forecasts.

The S&P 500 fell 4.46 points, or 0.1%, to 6,940.01.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 83.11 points, or 0.2%, to 49,359.33.
