Description: •US equity markets settled narrowly mixed as investors absorbed another busy corporate earnings calendar - Dow edged +56-points or +0.11% higher, with International Business Machines Corp (IBM) rising +5.13% to be the leading performer in the 30-stock index after posting stronger-than-expected fourth quarter EPS and revenue after the close of the previous session. Microsoft Corp tumbled -9.99% and recorded worst daily performance since March 2020 following the release of the company’s fourth quarter result after the close of the previous session, with investors seemingly unnerved by record spending on artificial intelligence (AI) last quarter.
