U.S. stocks tiptoed to more records after a quiet day of
trading. The S&P 500 edged up by 2 points, or less than 0.1%, on
Tuesday to set an all-time high for the 55th time this year. The
Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.2%, while the Nasdaq
composite added 0.4% to its own record set a day earlier.
Treasury yields held relatively steady after a report showed
U.S. employers were advertising slightly more job openings at
the end of October than a month earlier. The South Korean won
sank against the dollar after its president declared martial law
and then later said he’ll lift it.
