Stocks Little Changed to Kick Off a Busy Week

Stocks are wavering at the start of a busy week that has employment figures on tap, along with earnings from Nvidia and retail heavy-hitters Target and Walmart. Shortly after the market opened, the Dow was flat, the S&P 500 was up 0.1%, and the Nasdaq Composite rose 0.2%. Investors kicked off the day with comments from Vice Chair of the Federal Reserve Philip Jefferson who, at a Kansas City Fed event, said he expects slightly higher unemployment by the end of the year compared to this summer.
