After moving sharply higher over the past several sessions, stocks may give back ground in early trading on Tuesday. The major index futures are currently pointing to a modestly lower open for the markets, with the Dow futures down by 68 points.
Traders may take a breather following the strong upward move seen in recent days, which has driven the major averages to new record highs.
The Dow and the S&P 500 have both closed higher for six consecutive sessions, while the Nasdaq has risen in five out of the past six sessions.
