Stock Markets Finish Higher Tuesday, GM Goes Electric, Uber Sees Higher Costs

The stock market has had a habit of taking three steps forward and two steps back, and on Tuesday, investors got a nice bounce from Monday's drop. Gains for the Dow Jones Industrials (DJINDICES: ^DJI), S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC), and Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) were all less than half a percent. General Motors (NYSE: GM) made some interesting announcements as car fans look forward to Tuesday night's unveiling of a key new electric vehicle.
