NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Dow and the S&P 500 ended at record highs again on Monday as a closely watched read on U.S. manufacturing was revised to show more strength than initially indicated. It was the second straight record closing high for the Dow and the third straight record close for the S&P 500.
