[September 27, 2024]  U.S. stocks rose to another all-time high, but a slide in oil prices kept the gains in check by weighing down energy companies. 

 

The S&P 500 rose 0.4% Thursday, setting its third record high this week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.6%, and the Nasdaq rose 0.6%.

Micron Technology led the way after AI-related demand helped it deliver a stronger-than-expected profit report. Other tech companies also rose. Exxon Mobil, ConocoPhillips and other energy companies fell along with crude prices.
