Stocks mustered only tiny gains Tuesday, despite strong earnings from Wall Street bellwether Goldman Sachs Group and better-than-expected retail sales data.
Major indexes have been stuck all day in a narrow range. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, which soared 185 points Monday, was recently up 18 points, or 0.2%, at 8350.12, helped by a 2.3% gain in Home Depot. The Nasdaq Composite Index rose 0.3%. The S&P 500 was up 0.4% at 904.28, led by a 1.5% increase for its consumer-discretionary category, which has been playing catch-up after lagging the broader market in recent sessions.
