Trading may be quiet on Christmas Eve, but that hasn’t stopped the S&P 500 from notching another milestone.
The index inched up 0.2%, good enough to hit a new intraday high of just over 6,921 points. It’s the first time since Oct. 29 that the benchmark gauge has set an intraday record.
The gains mean that the S&P 500 is on pace for its 39th record close of the year, and 1.1% short of topping 7,000 points for the first time.
