The U.S. stock market's three major indices started the day with mixed results. The S&P 500 gained 0.15%, the Nasdaq Composite rose 0.27%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.02%. The Nasdaq Composite led the gains, boosted by strength in technology stocks. Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon all traded higher. The S&P 500 also saw gains, with energy and financial stocks performing well. However, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was weighed down by losses in Boeing and Caterpillar. Overall, the mixed start to the day suggests that investors are still cautious about the market's direction. However, the gains in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite indicate that there is still some optimism about the long-term prospects for the stock market.
