BANGKOK - Wall Street isn’t moving much, but a swirl of competing forces are pushing and pulling on markets under the seemingly calm surface. The S&P 500 was flat early Thursday following a mixed set of profit reports and forecasts from Tesla and other influential stocks. The Dow was 9 points higher, and the Nasdaq composite was up 0.1%. In the bond market, the yield on the 10-year Treasury hit its highest level since 2007 before paring back.
