S&P 500 scores record close as stocks edge up NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- U.S. stocks nudged higher on Monday, adding slightly to Friday's big gains, as investors were largely unfazed by a trio of Federal Reserve officials suggesting a stimulus reduction could come soon. The S&P 500 rose 3.28 points, or 0.2%, to 1,808.36, scoring a new closing high. The benchmark index topped a prior record close achieved on Nov. 27. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 5.33 points, or less than 0.1%, to close at 16,025.53. The Nasdaq Composite advanced 6.23 points, or 0.2%, to 4,068.75.
