The U.S. stock market swung through another unsettled day of trading, ahead of a couple of crucial tests for Wall Street.
The S&P 500 added 0.4% after veering between a small loss and a leap of 1.1% earlier in the day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.1%, and the Nasdaq composite gained 0.6%.
Nvidia climbed as traders made their final moves before it delivered its latest profit report, which arrived after trading finished for the day. Much is riding on it because of worries that AI stock prices may have shot too high. Treasury yields held relatively steady.
