NEWYORK (AP) — U.S. stocks are drifting near their record heights. The S&P 500 was virtually unchanged in early Monday trading and is near its all-time high set on Thursday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dipped 143 points, and the Nasdaq composite rose 0.2%. Wall Street has run to records in large part because profits are booming for big U.S. companies, and investors are waiting for the latest earnings updates from some of the nation’s retailers coming later this week. In the meantime, oil prices are edging higher and helped push Treasury yields upward in the bond market. Stocks slipped in Europe following a stronger finish in Asia.
