US stocks rise and catch up with gains in overseas markets

NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. stock market is rising as it catches up with others around the world that climbed the day before, when President Donald Trump said negotiations were "proceeding nicely" with Iran on ending their war. The S&P 500 rose 0.6% early Tuesday after trading resumed following Monday's holiday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average edged up 44 points, and the Nasdaq composite climbed 0.9%. All three indexes are at or near their all-time highs. The price for a barrel of Brent crude, the international standard, rose 3%. Treasury yields moved lower in the bond market. European and Asian markets were mixed.

Shares were mixed Tuesday in Europe and Asia after the U.S. military said it carried out what it called "self-defense" strikes in southern Iran, including on missile launch sites and boats placing mines.
