In the days’ stock news:

Dell Technologies closed up 4.8% after reporting adjusted quarterly earnings of $2.37 per share with growing demand for its computers and servers, and issued a stronger than expected current-quarter forecast.
Deere closed up more than 5% after the company issued stronger-than-expected quarterly earnings. Deere posted earnings of $4.12 per share last quarter. Deere said solid demand for its products helped cushion the impact of a month-long workers strike. Its revenue came in slightly below analyst forecasts, however.
