Stocks closed mixed at the end of the choppy session on Monday as investors braced for big tech earnings later this week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed over 60 points, while the S&P 500 Index ticked above a positive flatline and the Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.3%.

Here's how the market settled on Monday:

S&P 500 Index (SPY  ): +0.09% or +3.60 points to 4,137.13

Dow Jones Industrial Average (DIA  ): +0.19% or +63.97 points to 33,872.93

Wall Street looked ahead on Monday, preparing for a week of corporate earnings from heavyweights including Amazon (AMZN  ), Alphabet (GOOGL  ), Meta Platforms (META  ) and Microsoft (MSFT  ) later this week. So far this year, communications services (XLC  ) and information technology (XLK  ) stocks have posted some of the biggest gains on the S&P 500.

Market participants have also grown concerned that profits among U.S. companies are slipping in response to higher interest rates and changes in consumer trends in response to persistently high inflation. Still, the earnings season has been pretty solid so far, with about 76% of S&P 500 companies have reported earnings beats, according to FactSet data.

According to LPL Financial's Chief Global Strategist Quincy Krosby, the week of earnings ahead could mark the start of the "final round of the push-pull skirmish between the market and economic trends."

The week ahead also includes economic releases on consumer confidence, new homes sales and durable goods orders, with each report serving as some of the last inflation data reports ahead of the Federal Reserve's Federal Open Market Committee's policy-setting meeting next week.

The filings show that the company has between 25,001 and 50,000 creditors, including BNY Mellon (BK  ), Pinterest (PINS  ) and Keurig (KDP  ).

Shares of Fox Corporation (FOXA  ) came under pressure after the network said on Monday one of its most popular primetime hosts Tucker Carlson will be leaving the company, effective immediately.
