Stocks shifted between small gains and losses in afternoon trading on Wall Street Monday as investors prepare for another busy week of corporate earnings. The S&P 500 fell 0.3%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell less than 0.1%, and the Nasdaq fell 0.3%. Energy and financial companies rose. Losses from some big technology and communications companies tempered gains elsewhere in the market. Spirit Airlines jumped 16.9% after Frontier Airlines’ parent company agreed to buy the carrier in a deal worth $2.9 billion. Several big companies are on deck this week to report earnings, including Pfizer, Walt Disney and Coca-Cola.
