U.S. stocks end lower following first reported U.S. case of coronavirus
U.S. stocks closed lower Tuesday, falling short of last week's records, after the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced the first case of the coronavirus within the U.S., which sent jitters that originated in Asian equities rippling through Wall Street. The selloff in U.S. equities left the Dow Jones Industrial Average down 151.45 points, or 0.5%, at 29,196.6, breaking its five-day winning streak. The S&P 500 index fell 8.77 points, or almost 0.3%, at 3,320.84 and the Nasdaq Composite Index shed 18.14 points, or 0.2%, to settle at 9,370.81, after briefly turning positive mid-session to set a record intraday high of 9,397.58. Last week, the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq all posted their best weekly gains since Aug. 30, according to FactSet data. The virus's outbreak in China, which originated in the city of Wuhan, has sickened around 300 people, leaving six dead, according to Chinese state media and health officials.

Stocks retreat from record highs at open as investors return from holidays
U.S. stocks opened modestly lower on Tuesday as the stock-market took a breather from its record-breaking climb, amid some worries around muted global growth and a respiratory virus spreading in China. Investors were returning from the holidays on Monday, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. day. The S&P 500 was down 0.3% to around 3,321. The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed 51 points, or 0.2%, to 29,297. The Nasdaq Composite fell 0.3% to 9,364. Concerns around sluggish global growth resurfaced after the International Monetary fund trimmed its gross domestic product forecast for the world. The outbreak of the coronavirus in China has helped to dampen the mood of investors in Asia, producing sharp declines overnight in Chinese and Hong Kong stock markets. In company news, shares of Halliburton Co. traded higher after the oil services company reported a less severe drop in fourth-quarter revenue than expectations.

Man who made a killing during financial crisis says that, at some point, the stock market will slow down — but, till then, ‘I love riding a horse that’s running’
The U.S. stock market has enjoyed a nearly uninterrupted assault on records, highlighted by the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closing at a milestone above 29,000 for the first time and the S&P 500 (SPX) achieving its own landmark close above the psychological round-number at 3,300, while investors in the Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP) may have their sights trained on 10,000. The ascent for stocks has made investors uneasy, primarily, because markets are already coming off a stellar 2019 and further gains, while possible, were expected to be more subdued than the current start for major indexes in the third week of 2020.
