Markets turned lower on Tuesday, with tech stocks leading the charge lower. Investors are still considering the implications from the recent announcement that Jerome Powell would be renominated as chairperson of the Federal Reserve. While this could mean tapering in the near future, it does provide some stability in leadership for the Fed over the coming years.
