The S&P 500 Index ($SPX) (SPY) Thursday closed up +0.11%, the Dow Jones Industrials Index ($DOWI) (DIA) closed up +0.12%, and the Nasdaq 100 Index ($IUXX) (QQQ) closed down -0.14%. 

Stock indexes on Thursday settled mixed, with the S&P 500 posting a new all-time high.  Stocks found some support on Thursday’s Q4 GDP report, which was revised higher, while the core PCE price deflator was revised lower, bolstering the outlook for an economic soft landing.  Strength in energy stocks supported the overall market after crude prices rose more than +2% to a 1-week high.
