EmailFollowing an afternoon rally, U.S. equities failed to hold session highs and ended mixed. The Dow advanced by nearly 0.5%, while the S&P 500 was essentially unchanged and Nasdaq fell by 0.3%. Mixed earnings and a new home sales reading that missed expectations provided the day's headlines. Egan Jones issued a downgrade of Italy's sovereign rating to CCC+ from B+. Despite weak results from Apple (AAPL 574.97, -25.95), technology was the best performing sector in the S&P 500 today.
