Stocks continued to drift higher yesterday, led by technology and small caps.
Strength in shares of Google helped propel the Nasdaq 100 higher by 1.31 points, or 0.05 percent, to 2784.00. GOOG rose 1.59 percent to $688.01, its highest level since early 2008.
The S&P 500 advanced 1.19 points, or 0.08 percent, to 1410.09.
The Russell 2000 continued to outperform its large-cap counterparts on Wednesday, closing higher by 3.56 points, or 0.44 percent, to 817.84.
The small moves occurred at the same time that overall trading volumes were extremely light. Activity has been quiet this week ahead of Labor Day weekend and as investors prepare for the Federal Reserve's Jackson Hole economic summit tomorrow.
