NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks ended with meager gains on Wall Street Friday following another rocky day of sharp swings. The S&P 500 climbed 0.1% but still ended with its second weekly loss in a row. Momentum has been lightning-quick to shift on Wall Street recently. The Nasdaq composite, which includes many of the superstar tech stocks that have been the focus of the market’s recent selling, lost 0.6% after flip-flopping earlier between gains and losses. It had swung at least 1.3% in each of the last five days, with four of those down. The Dow rose 131 points, or 0.5%.
