The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite marked record closes on Thursday, as many U.S. financial assets recovered from a brief but sharp dip one day prior. The S&P 500 finished up 0.5% to mark its 9th record close for the year, after briefly touching a new intraday record. The tech-heavy Nasdaq clinched its 4th consecutive record close, the longest streak of straight record closes for the Nasdaq in 8 months, according to Dow Jones Market Data.
