Energy stocks showed weakness early on, but managed to close with a 0.8% gain. That came as crude oil prices rebounded from early weakness to close pit trading modestly higher at $46.30 per barrel. Oil's gyrations came after OPEC decided during its weekend meeting to leave production levels unchanged.
The New York Federal Reserve manufacturing index fell to a record low while industrial production tumbled in Feb.
