U.S. stocks rebounded as falling oil prices release some of the pressure that built up on the market.
The S&P 500 rose 1% Tuesday and clawed back its loss from the day before. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.3%, while the Nasdaq composite climbed 1.4% as Big Tech stocks led the way.
Wall Street held firm even though stock markets around the world sank following scary swings in China, as euphoria about possible stimulus for the world’s second-largest economy gave way to disappointment. Stocks in Hong Kong tumbled to their worst day since 2008.
