The Dow Jones Industrial Average posted a gain for the day and the week, while a fall in technology shares contributed to declines in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite. Upbeat quarterly results from large U.S. companies including Boeing, Caterpillar, Chevron and Verizon Communications helped the Dow industrials outperform its peers in recent days. Together, those stocks' weekly gains contributed roughly 310 points to the index, which rose 250.24 points, or 1.2%, for the week.
