Summary

  • US stocks were little changed, with tech shares edging higher after Monday's rally; Apple gained more than 1% and Meta added to gains tied to enthusiasm for its AI agent Muse.
  • Investors are also watching Trump's UN diplomacy and an expected Thursday meeting in Washington with Xi Jinping, which could shape broader market sentiment.
