(AP) — The latest on developments in financial markets (all times local):

Stocks shook off early losses and closed mostly higher on Wall Street as technology and bank stocks rallied.

IBM rose 4.5% Thursday after reporting solid results. The company, along with Apple, helped lift the technology sector to lead the broader gains.

Banks led financial stocks higher. BB&T rose 2.8% and SunTrust Banks rose 2.7%.

Major indexes were down most of the day after Netflix reported a slump in new subscribers that sank its stock and took other communications companies down with it. That sector remained the biggest loser of the day.

Netflix sank 10.3%.

The S&P 500 rose 10 points, or 0.4%, to 2,995.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average edged up 2 points to 27,222. The Nasdaq added 22 points, or 0.3%, to 8,207.

11:45 a.m.
Stocks are moving lower on Wall Street as a big miss in subscriber numbers by Netflix pulls down communications companies.

Netflix plunged 11.4% Thursday after saying its subscriber additions for the April-June period were far below its forecasts. The shortfall came after Netflix raised its prices.

Technology stocks also fell. Qualcomm lost 1.8% after European regulators fined the chipmaker $271 million and accused it of predatory pricing.

Union Pacific rose 4.5% after the railroad operator reported earnings that were far better than analysts were expecting. That came as a relief a day after rival CSX cut its revenue outlook.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 141 points, or 0.5%, to 27,080. The Nasdaq fell 48 points, or 0.6%, to 8,136.
