Stocks notched some modest gains on Wall Street Monday, enough to mark more record highs for major U.S. indexes.

       The S&P 500 edged up for its eighth straight gain, matching its longest winning streak since April 2019, however most of the gains during that stretch have been modest. Stocks of construction-related companies made some of the strongest gains after Congress passed a $1 trillion infrastructure bill on Friday.

       Stocks have been climbing broadly over the last month as companies have reported stronger-than-expected profits.

       On Monday:

       The S&P 500 rose 4.17 points, or 0.1%, to 4,701.70.

       The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 104.27 points, or 0.3%, to 36,432.22.

       The Nasdaq rose 10.77 points, 0.1%, to 15,982.36.

       The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies rose 5.66 points, or 0.2%, to 2,442.74.

       For the year:

       The S&P 500 is up 945.63 points, or 25.2%.

       The Dow is up 5,825.74 points, or 19%.
