US stocks closed mixed on Tuesday, with the S&P 500 ending its seven-day win streak and the Nasdaq 100 closing at record highs.
Crude oil jumped to its highest level since 2015 before paring some of the gains following a breakdown in talks among OPEC+ members. The group was unable to agree upon an oil production increase. OPEC and its allies had been discussing output increases, but the UAE is unhappy with the proposed target that it believes is too low, according to reports.
Meanwhile, the US 10-year Treasury yield fell to 1.34%, helping revitalize the mega-cap tech trade. Shares of Amazon were up nearly 5% on Tuesday to a record high, while Apple jumped about 2%.
Here's where US indexes stood at the 4:00 p.m. ET close on Tuesday:
- S&P 500: 4,343.60, down 0.2%
- Dow Jones industrial average: 34,581.45, down 0.59% (204.90 points)
- Nasdaq composite: 14,663.64, up 0.17%
