The S&P 500 fell on Tuesday, a day after the broad market index and Nasdaq Composite hit fresh records, as traders weighed the latest earnings reports and new trade developments.
The S&P 500 ticked lower by 0.3%, while the Nasdaq slipped 0.9%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 74 points, or 0.2%.
Shares of aerospace and defense name Lockheed Martin were down almost 7% after the company's revenue for the second quarter missed analyst estimates. Similarly, Philip Morris lost 6% after the tobacco company's second-quarter revenue also missed expectations.
So far, 88 S&P 500 companies have reported, with more than 82% of those topping analysts' estimates, according to FactSet data. Eyes are on commentary from companies about macroeconomic certainty, the impact of tariffs and details on demand and spending related to artificial intelligence.
