The stock market remained on guard on Tuesday morning, with the investment climate remaining uncertain amid geopolitical and macroeconomic pressures. As of 11:30 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) was down 119 points to 32,699. The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) had fallen 24 points to 4,177, and the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) had dropped 81 points to 12,750.
Even a difficult market environment isn't stopping investors from responding to the latest news affecting their individual companies. Petco Health and Wellness (NASDAQ: WOOF) saw a nice gain after the pet specialist reported strong quarterly results. Meanwhile, Mandiant (NASDAQ: MNDT) gave back some ground after rumors of a big deal turned out to be true.
