The
S&P 500 edged down by 0.2% Thursday. The Dow Jones Industrial
Average fell 0.4%, and the Nasdaq composite slipped less than

years. It rose after President Joe Biden suggested officials

facilities, though no move looks imminent. Treasury yields rose
following signals the economy remains solid.
