Wall Street edges higher on industrial gains; healthcare drags again
In a bright spot, U.S. retail sales increased by the most in 1-1/2 years in March, while a labor department report showed the number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits dropped to its lowest in nearly 50 years last week, further underscoring the economy's strength. Details of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russia's role in the 2016 U.S. election were released during the session and showed a series of incidents in which President Donald Trump took actions to impede the probe that raised questions of whether he committed the crime of obstruction of justice. Mueller did not make a conclusion on whether Trump had committed obstruction of justice, but did not exonerate him either.
