US stock indexes were ticking higher on Tuesday as voters head to the polls on the last day of the US presidential poll.

The S&P 500 was up 0.4 per cent in early trading, inching closer to its record set last month. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 66 points, as of 8:05 pm (IST) and the Nasdaq composite was 0.6 per cent higher. Excitement about the AI boom helped lift Wall Street, as it has for much of the last year. Software company Palantir Technologies jumped 16.7 per cent after delivering bigger profit and revenue than analysts expected for the latest quarter.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
