NEW YORK — U.S. stock indexes gave up an early gain and ended slightly lower following a mixed set of profit reports from giants like Google’s parent company and Eli Lilly. The S&P 500 slipped 0.3% Wednesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.2%, and the Nasdaq composite fell 0.6% from its record set the day before. Alphabet rallied after becoming the latest “Magnificent Seven” stock to deliver strong profit.
Meta Platforms and Microsoft will become Nos. 3 and 4 among the Magnificent Seven to report their results for the summer after trading ends for the day. Meta added 0.1%, while Microsoft rose 0.6%. One of the few stocks to hurt the index more was Eli Lilly, which tumbled 7.7% amid concerns about two of the drug maker’s blockbuster products: diabetes treatment Mounjaro and weight loss counterpart Zepbound.
Among the biggest movers on Wall Street, Reddit soared 42.1% after the company surprised investors and analysts and reported a profit.
