The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 25 points, or 0.1%, as of 9:35 a.m. Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was up 0.4% after coming off its own record. Norfolk Southern chugged 2.6% higher after an AP source said it’s talking with Union Pacific about a merger to create the largest railroad in North America, one that would connect the East and West coasts.

Netflix, meanwhile, fell 4.7% despite reporting a stronger profit for the latest quarter than Wall Street expected. Analysts said it’s not a surprise the stock was sluggish after it had already soared 43% for the year so far, coming into the day. That’s six times more than the gain for the S&P 500.
