NEW YORK—U.S. stocks were largely stuck in place Wednesday as Wall Street continues to recalibrate following its sharp recent swings.
The S&P 500 edged up by 4.40 points, or 0.1 percent, to 4,382.78 for a third straight day of quiet, mixed trading. Its movements have become much calmer after the index screamed to its best week of the year last week, which itself came after months of painful losses.
