Energy companies led a pullback on Wall Street Thursday that left stock indexes mostly lower.
The S&P 500 again crossed above its record high but closed just below that level for the second day in a row. Losses in banks and industrial stocks helped outweigh gains in communication services and technology companies.
Treasury yields were higher following an auction of 30-year bonds and after a report showed that 963,000 U.S. workers filed for unemployment benefits last week.
