The main US stock indexes mostly rose on Tuesday, as optimistic results from Netflix (NFLX) stimulated the growth of the technology sector, while Dow was under pressure from the decline in shares of Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) and Procter & Gamble (PG).

In addition, a review by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond showed that activity of manufacturing firms in the Fifth Circuit slowed in January, despite the fact that each of the indicators remained positive. The composite index of business activity fell from 20 to 14. This decline was caused by a fall in the indicators of supply and employment. The third component, new orders, kept steadily. However, manufacturing firms were faced with an increase in unfulfilled orders in January, after a decline in December, as the index rose from -4 to 5.

Quotes of oil increased by more than 1.5% on Tuesday, supported by favorable prospects for world economic growth and expectations of further oil production constraints on the part of OPEC, Russia and their allies.
