[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (+0.37%) is in second place on Tuesday afternoon, up about 25 points.
Briefly, S&P 500 constituents Fiserv (FISV 63.67, +4.31, +7.26%), Generac (GNRC 234.39, +9.94, +4.43%), and Baxter (BAX 20.69, +0.90, +4.55%) host solid gains. FISV rallies after reports that Jana Partners has built a stake in the company, while GNRC and BAX rise despite a dearth of corporate news.
Meanwhile, Allegion (ALLE 164.03, -15.47, -8.62%) is one of today's worst laggards after slightly missing Q4 EPS and revenue expectations and issuing FY26 guidance that suggests moderate growth.
