Wall Street set records, even as a sell-off for Oracle and worries about a potential bubble in artificial-intelligence technology weighed on the market.
The S&P 500 edged up 0.2% Thursday to eke past the all-time closing high it set in October. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 646 points and topped its own record set last month. Weakness for AI-related stocks, though, weighed on the Nasdaq composite, which fell 0.3%.
Gains for Eli Lilly, banks and smaller stocks helped offset a steep drop for Oracle, whose plans for increased spending on AI surprised analysts. Treasury yields held relatively steady in the bond market.

The S&P 500 rose 14.32 points, or 0.2%, to 6,901.00.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 646.26 points, or 1.3%, to 48,704.01.
The Nasdaq composite fell 60.30 points, or 0.3%, to 23,593.86.
