Börse Express – ROUNDUP / Aktien New York: Moderate losses after recent records

NEW YORK (dpa-AFX) – Slight profit-taking pushed Wall Street somewhat into the red on Tuesday. After the mostly positive start to the week with new records, the most important indices are still at high levels.

The leading index Dow Jones Industrial fell 0.12 percent to 35 355.89 points in early trading. On a monthly basis, this indicates an increase of a good 1 percent.

For the broader S&P 500 it went down on Tuesday by 0.13 percent to 4523.03 points. Among the technology indices, the Nasdaq 100 fell by 0.31 percent to 15 556.82 points.

On the company side, the video conferencing service Zoom was available
with its business figures in focus. Although this generated quarterly sales of more than one billion dollars for the first time, it expects lower growth in the future.

After the corona pandemic accelerated the change in the world of work and triggered a strong trend towards home offices, more and more employees are now returning to the offices. That darkens the business outlook for Zoom significantly. The shares plummeted by almost 16 percent, making them by far the biggest loser on the Nasdaq 100.

In contrast, the shares in Netease listed in New York recovered thanks to good quarterly figures by around four percent, putting them at the top of the index. The previous day, the papers of the Chinese online company suffered from the fact that the Chinese leadership tightened the rules for young users of online games. / La / mis
