NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks are drifting close to their record heights in early trading on Wall Street Tuesday after the United States and China indicated some progress in trade talks, helping to calm one of the market’s bigger worries.

The S&P 500 was up 0.1% after the first 15 minutes of trading, with slightly more stocks rising in the index than falling. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 32 points, or 0.1%, at 28,275, as of 9:45 a.m. Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was virtually flat. Treasury yields rose.
