How Major US Stock Indexes Fared July 8

Wall Street ended mixed a day after a broad sell-off in response to the Trump administration setting new tariffs on more than a dozen nations. The S&P 500 slipped 0.1 percent Tuesday.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.4 percent, and the Nasdaq composite was little changed.

The sluggish trading came a day after the S&P 500 had its biggest drop since June as President Donald Trump announced a 25 percent tax on imports from Japan and South Korea and new tariff rates on other nations set to go into effect Aug. 1.

The S&P 500 remains near the record it set last week.
