NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks wavered on Wall Street Tuesday as traders return from a long holiday weekend to face a relatively quiet week.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 43 points, or 0.1%, to 34,792 as of 11:22 a.m. Eastern.
Hong Kong’s benchmark fell 2.1%, as investors sold real estate shares which have gained recently following government efforts to support the ailing industry.
Wall Street will also get updates on aspects of the manufacturing sector and consumer credit.
Analysts are still concerned about the potential for a recession, but those concerns have lessened as inflation cools and the economy remains resilient.
