- The benchmark S&P 500 stock index posted a slim gain to end with a record closing high on Thursday, as a dour forecast from tech stalwart Cisco Systems was offset by a strong report from big box retailer Walmart.
The Dow index ended barely negative, after posting a closing high on Wednesday, while the Nasdaq also ended fractionally lower. Cisco’s share decline weighed the most on the major indexes and helped drag the technology sector .SPLRCT down 0.1%. Walmart shares fell 0.3% after hitting a record high earlier in the session, but the S&P 500 retail .SPXRT and consumer discretionary .SPLRCD indexes finished higher after the company’s report.
