NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks are off to a mixed start on Wall Street as losses for health care and materials companies offset gains in technology. The S&P 500 was little changed in the first few minutes of trading Friday. The index is still on track for a small gain for the week following several days of bumpy trading. Solid gains all week for technology companies have the Nasdaq heading for a weekly gain of more than 2%. European markets were broadly lower while Asian markets ended higher. Treasury yields were slightly lower and crude oil prices fell. Deere rose after reporting strong results.
