Stock market today: Most of Wall Street slips as the bond market cranks up the pressure

Most stocks closed lower as the constrictor of higher interest rates tightened its coils around Wall Street NEW YORK -- Stocks mostly slipped in mixed trading Monday as the constrictor of higher interest rates tightened its coils around Wall Street. The S & P 500 edged up by 0.34, or less than 0.1%, to 4,288.39, coming off its worst month of the year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 74.15 points, or 0.2%, to 33,433.35, and the Nasdaq composite rose 88.45, or 0.7%, to 13,307.77. Slumps for oil-and-gas stocks weighed on the market after crude prices gave back some of the sharp gains made since the summer.
