U.S. stocks slipped Friday, dragging the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average to narrow weekly losses. That marks the second-straight week of declines for both indexes, which previously had been on a two-month-long stretch of gains, boosted by strong corporate earnings and solid economic growth around the world. But with the S&P 500 up more than 15% so far this year, some investors are asking how long the upswing can last. Major indexes have wobbled over the past several sessions, hurt by a drop in the price of oil even as consumer companies have risen.
