Stocks are mostly lower as investors await more clues about the economy and the start of second-quarter earnings reports.
The decline in the stock market early Tuesday follows mixed moves in overseas markets.
No major economic releases were expected but investors are watching this week’s G8 summit, starting Wednesday, to see what leaders, including President Barack Obama, say about the economy.
Investors have become more tentative in recent weeks after the market’s spring rally and are now trading cautiously. Some fear they might have been too optimistic in March and April about how soon the economy will recover from the recession.
In the first half hour of trading, the Dow Jones industrials fell 39.22, or 0.5 percent, to 8,285.65. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 3.69, or 0.4 percent, to 895.03 and the Nasdaq composite index lost 4.03, or 0.2 percent, to 1,783.37.
