Wall Street wrapped up the trading day with a positive closing, as a majority of stocks posted gains that outweighed declines from notable companies like Alphabet, which revealed its latest financial results.

The S&P 500 index gained 0.4% on Wednesday, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average increased by 0.7%. The Nasdaq composite saw a modest rise of 0.2%.

Shares of Mattel surged after reporting earnings that significantly exceeded market expectations for the quarter. This boost helped to mitigate the impact of Alphabet’s stock decline, which was attributed to the reported deceleration in growth within its cloud services sector. Concurrently, treasury yields decreased in the bond market following a report indicating that the expansion of U.S. services fell below analysts’ forecasts.
