Wall Street ekes out gains, led by tech, growth stocks Updated: 2021-07-23 05:43 [Photo/Agencies]

A pull-back in economically sensitive cyclicals kept the S&P 500 s and the blue-chip Dow s gains muted, while small-caps underperformed their larger rivals.
But megacap tech and tech-adjacent stocks, such as Microsoft Corp, Amazon.com, Apple Inc, Facebook Inc and Alphabet Inc, rose ahead of their quarterly results next week, putting the Nasdaq out front.
