Dow and S&P hurt by banks, but Nasdaq gains on tech


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Dow and S&P 500 slipped on Tuesday, weighed by declines in financials and disappointing housing data, but the Nasdaq gained as investors snapped up technology shares ahead of results from Hewlett Packard .

    The Dow Jones industrial average slipped 29.23 points, or 0.34 percent, to 8,474.85. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index dipped 1.58 points, or 0.17 percent, to 908.13. The Nasdaq Composite Index added 2.18 points, or 0.13 percent, to 1,734.54.
