The stock market is down slightly on Tuesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average down 0.03%, the Nasdaq down 0.10% and the S&P 500 down 0.21%. Tuesday’s trading volume for the biggest market gainers and losers was generally light. Today’s winner signed was a mobile marketer who signed a contract with a major U.S. brand. Meanwhile, an executive departure sent shares of our loser falling.
