MoreThe Dow Jones Industrial Average topped its all-time closing high twice during today's session but failed to set a record for a second day in a row.
The Dow closed up 29 points or 0.3% on the day to 11,718.45 -- about 4.5 points under its all-time high of 11,722.98.
The blue chip index topped the record right after the open. But it stagnated for much of the day, thanks to another rally that sent crude oil as high as $64.05 a barrel.
Crude pulled back in late New York trading, finishing down 30 cents at $62.66. The slippage sent the stock market higher with the Dow crossing above 11,722 at about 3:45 p.m. before slipping back.
Also acting as a drag on the market during the day was mixed economic news. While jobless claims fell, dropping close to economists' expectations, the Commerce Department revised its gross domestic product number for spring to 2.6% from 2.9%.
The Dow was led by two troubled stocks -- General Motors (GM, news, msgs), up 2.5%, and Intel (INTC, news, msgs), up 2%. GM rose as its biggest shareholder announced he wants to buy more. Intel jumped on upbeat comments from brokers.
Meanwhile, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index was up 2.6 points to 1,339, and the Nasdaq Composite Index was up 6.6 points to 2,270. Techs had a strong day. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index ($SOX.X) finished 1% higher and led the 41 indexes Market Dispatches tracks; 14 of the 19 stocks in the index were higher. Broadcom (BRCM, news, msgs), which makes chips used in wireless systems, was up 3.7%.
