Stocks ended mixed after a day of wavering between gains and losses Monday as the market cools off following a rare winning week.
The S&P 500, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq fell. Small-company stocks rose. Declines in technology and communication stocks, and in several big retailers and travel-related companies weighed on the market. Those losses checked gains in energy stocks and elsewhere. Treasury yields rose.
Stocks closed out last week with solid gains and the S&P 500 had its best day in two years on Friday.
