Stocks rose Wednesday, thanks to a jump in Apple, as investors analyzed the latest batch of corporate earnings.
The S&P 500 gained 0.73% to close at 6,345.06, while the Nasdaq Composite advanced 1.21% and settled at 21,169.42. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 81.38 points, or 0.18%, ending at 44,193.12.
Apple climbed 5% after a White House official confirmed to CNBC that the iPhone maker is going to boost its investment in domestic manufacturing by $100 billion. That brings its total U.S. investment to $600 billion over the next four years.
Those moves follow a losing day for the market, marking the S&P 500′s fifth down day of the last six and the Dow’s sixth negative session of the past seven.
