Stocks Turn Higher. Oil Prices Are Sliding.
Stocks turned higher after a volatile morning for futures carried over into Tuesday’s session.
The Dow was up 250 points, or 0.5%. The S&P 500 was up 0.4%. The Nasdaq Composite was up 0.6%.
Wall Street struggled to gauge the latest comments about the war in Iran from the Trump administration. Futures tracking the major indexes wobbled all morning before stocks fell at the open. The latest turn higher followed another leg lower for oil prices.
