SpaceX Softens the Nasdaq's Fall While the Dow Keeps Climbing
Overview
Wall Street couldn't agree on a direction on Tuesday. The Dow went for a run while the Nasdaq sulked in a corner.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) rose 0.8% by noon ET, building on Monday's record-setting session. The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) slipped 0.2%, while the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) fell 0.4%. The Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ: QQQ), which tracks the Nasdaq-100 index, dropped 1.2%. One stock's absence from the stricter Nasdaq-100 list made a big difference.
