Technology companies were also higher Monday following steep losses last week.

Alibaba skidded 3.7% after the huge Chinese e-commerce company said co-founder Jack Ma will step down as chairman in 2019. The S&P 500 rose 5 points, or 0.2%, to 2,877. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 59 points, or 0.2%, to 25,857. The Nasdaq composite added 21 points, or 0.3%, to 7,924. (Read more stock market stories.)
