US stocks up as market digests mixed earnings

New York, Oct 23, 2025 (AFP)
Wall Street stocks climbed early Thursday following a round of mixed earnings as markets monitor US-China trade dynamics and await key inflation data.
Shares of IBM and Tesla were among the companies decisively lower following their earnings reports. Disappointing results from Netflix earlier in the week had dampened momentum for other large tech companies.
But other companies such as Honeywell International and American Airlines rallied after their reports.
About 25 minutes into trading, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 0.2 percent at 46,703.49.
The broad-based S&P 500 gained 0.4 percent to 6,728.99, while the tech-rich Nasdaq Composite Index advanced 0.5 percent to 22,859.82.
"Earnings are the main theme" today and "people aren't loving the earnings that we're seeing," said Steve Sosnick of Interactive Brokers.
Despite the government shutdown, US officials are poised to release Friday a consumer price index reading for September, a key data point heading into the Federal Reserve meeting later this month.
