The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 0.55%, the Nasdaq is up 0.60% and the S&P 500 is up 0.53%. Today’s winner is a mining firm receiving favorable approval from the Mexican government on how it reports revenue, while today’s loser is a well-known online gaming company that negatively altered its full-year financial outlook.
