U.S. stock indexes opened higher Tuesday, a day after a record close for the S&P 500 amid lower liquidity in the last days of the year.
The S&P 500 added 0.1% after the broad-market index rallied 1.4% on Monday. The Nasdaq Composite rose 0.2%, pointing to gains in technology stocks, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average ticked up 0.1%.
