Wall Street crept higher on a day some have dubbed "Triple Threat Thursday" - Dow inched +9-points or 0.04% higher (hitting a fresh record high at the conclusion of former Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director James Comey's testimony to the Senate Intelligence Committee) and the broader S&P500 +0.03% (with Financials again leading the gainers list, with Utilities the main laggard). The technology-centric NASDAQ gained +0.39%, setting fresh record intra-day and closing highs. The markets negotiated the European Central Bank (ECB) latest monetary policy meeting and Comey's testimony (which was forthright but contained an absence of any material fresh revelations) with relative comfort however the UK general election looks like being the main course in terms of market volatility.
