NEW YORK—Wall Street closed Tuesday almost exactly where it began after a mixed set of profit reports led to a quiet, meandering day of trading.
The S&P 500 edged up by 3.55 points, or 0.1 percent, to 4,154.87 after drifting between small gains and losses throughout the day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 10.55, or less than 0.1 percent, to 33,976.63, and the Nasdaq composite was down 4.31, or less than 0.1 percent, at 12,153.41.
