US STOCKS SNAPSHOT-Wall Street opens higher after global selloff
Aug 6, 2024 6:59 AM

Aug 6 (Reuters) - Wall Street's main indexes opened

higher on Tuesday as investors hunted for bargains after a

global stocks rout in the previous session, while dovish rate

commentary from Federal Reserve officials also lifted the mood.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1.16 points at

the open to 38,704.43.

The S&P 500 opened higher by 17.73 points, or 0.34%,

at 5,204.06, while the Nasdaq Composite was up 63.7

points, or 0.39%, to 16,263.7 at the opening bell.
