The stock market had another relatively quiet day and the three major indexes closed almost flat, although the S&P 500 and Nasdaq notched intraday record highs.
The dollar slid to a six-month low, while the classic safety trades — the yen, US Treasurys and gold — all rallied. Some strategists pointed to the reports that President Donald Trump shared classified intelligence with Russian officials last week.

- S&P 500: 2,400.29, -2.03, (-0.08%)
- Nasdaq: 6,164.01, +14.33, (0.23%)
- US Dollar Index: 98.02, -0.78 (-0.79%)
