[BRIEFING.COM] With about two hours to go on Tuesday the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (-0.07%) is in second place, but only just.

Gold futures settled $14.10 higher (+0.4%) at $3,240.40/oz, as the market weighs the possibility of U.S. tariffs on semiconductor and pharmaceutical imports, which President Trump has linked to national security considerations.
