After a friendly start to the week, the US stock markets started trading on Tuesday with little movement. The leading index Dow Jones Industrial lost just under half an hour after the start gun 0.12 percent to 32 693.37 points. For the market-wide S&P 500 it went down 0.13 percent to 3935.56 points. In contrast, the technology-heavy Nasdaq 100 held up with a minimal minus of 0.01 percent on 13 085.85 counters, as the day before, better than the standard value indices.
In addition to falling bond yields, the focus is on falling oil prices and the speeches by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, which are expected later in trading. In addition, the tensions between the world’s two largest economies, the USA and China, remained an issue, wrote Axi market strategist Stephen Innes./gl/fba
