Stocks close books on best January in more than a decade at 12,632.91
from MarketWatch.com - MarketPulse
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- U.S. stocks on Tuesday closed the books on Wall Street's best January in more than a decade, with the indexes mostly slipping after U.S. economic data failed to live up to its billing. Both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 recorded their best percentage jump for the month of January since 1997. The Nasdaq Composite recorded its best January since 2001. The Dow industrials lost 20.81 points, or 0.2%, to 12,632.91, up 3.4% for January in its fourth straight monthly gain. The S&P 500 fell less than a point to 1,312.41, up 4.4% for the month, while the Nasdaq Composite rose nearly 2 points to 2,813.84, up 8% for January.
