How the major stock indexes fared on Tuesday

Mixed economic data kept the stock market hovering near break-even Tuesday. One report on home prices looked encouraging, and another on consumer confidence was worrisome.

House prices increased in all major U.S. cities in June, according to the closely watched Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller home-price index. The report was the latest sign that the housing market has been gaining strength.

The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 21.68 points, or 0.2 percent, to close at 13,102.99.

The S&P 500 index slipped 1.14 point, or less than 0.1 percent, to 1,409.30.
