US equity markets logged modest gains, with fresh gains for technology stocks lifting the S&P 500 and Nasdaq to their fourth consecutive record close - Dow eased -65-points or -0.17%, with Salesforce Inc (down -2.87%) and Amazon.com Inc (-1.64%) the worst performers in the 30-stock index. Boeing Co fell -1.08% said it has found improperly torqued fasteners on some of its undelivered 787 Dreamliners, the latest in a series of quality problems. The fastener problem does not make the wide-body plane unsafe to fly, and it has not stopped delivering the aircraft to customers. Apple Inc rose +0.55% to US$214.24, lifting the company’s market capitalisation to US$3.285 trillion to usurp Microsoft Corp (+0.12%, market cap US$3.282 trillion) as the most valuable US company. Apple hadn’t closed with a market cap above Microsoft’s since 24 January, according to Dow Jones Market Data.
