Major U.S. stock-indexes failed to hold on to its gains after opening at a record high on Monday as a drop in healthcare stocks offset the impact of higher oil prices and a strong jobs report. Oil prices rose nearly 3 percent after a report in the Wall Street Journal last week that some OPEC members had called for a freeze in production.

Dow stocks mixed (15 vs 15). Top gainer - Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM, +1.08%). Top looser - Merck & Co., Inc. (MRK, -2.11%).

S&P sectors also mixed. Top gainer - Basic Materials (+1.2%). Top looser - Healthcare (-1.0%).
