US stock exchanges: Wall Street closes mixed before election night - tech stocks stabilize
Ahead of the important midterm elections, tech stocks are rising. After the Nasdaq has officially entered a correction, parts of investors return to the buy side.
US stock market indices ended mixed on the day of the midterm elections. The Dow Jones fell 0.4% to 51,786 points, while the S&P 500 closed slightly up at 7,568 points and the Nasdaq rose 0.8% to 25,372 points. The technology sector, excluding Apple, showed stability after recent losses, but industrial stocks came under slight pressure.
The outcome of the midterm elections, which will determine the composition of Congress and various state and local offices, remains uncertain, with results expected to emerge overnight into Wednesday.
