Dow Jones Outperforms Nasdaq in Mixed Trading Session
US equities weathered a volatile session marked by sharp intraday swings, with traditional blue chips outperforming tech-heavy indices. The Dow Jones Industrial Average clawed back from early losses to close 114.09 points higher, while the S&P 500 eked out a 3.54-point gain. Despite recovering from deeper declines, the Nasdaq Composite failed to break even, ending down 16.81 points.
