US: Dow opens flat as trade concerns loom

[NEW YORK] The S&P and the Dow opened little changed on Tuesday as US President Donald Trump's move to impose steep import tariffs sparked concerns about potential retaliation.

The Nasdaq was slightly higher, helped by a 13 per cent jump in Netflix, following the company's upbeat results.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 2.38 points, or 0.01 percent, to 26,212.22. The S&P 500 gained 0.91 points, or 0.032122 per cent, to 2,833.88. The Nasdaq Composite added 17.00 points, or 0.23 per cent, to 7,425.04.
