Stocks give up much of an early surge day after huge plunge
NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks gave up most of an early surge on Wall Street and briefly dipped into the red a day after the market's biggest drop since 2008.

Markets bumped up after Vice President Mike Pence said the nation's big health insurers would cover co-pays for coronavirus testing. Investors are likely to see more big swings until the number of infections from the new coronavirus decelerate, and they also want a big, coordinated response from governments and central banks.
