Investing.com – Main U.S. indexes declined on Tuesday as investors awaited the release of the minutes from the most recent Federal Reserve meeting, along with key results from chip designer and AI powerhouse Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) after the market close.
Here are some of the biggest U.S. stock movers today:

- Best Buy (NYSE:BBY) stock fell 1% after the consumer electronics company slashed its full-year revenue outlook, projecting a decline in comparable sales in the key holiday quarter.
- Kohl’s (KSS) stock fell 9% after the department store chain posted a bigger than expected drop in quarterly sales, as customers spent less dollars amid persistently high inflation.
- Zoom (NASDAQ:ZM) stock fell 0.7%. Although the video conferencing platform raised its annual revenue and profit forecasts after beating expectations in its third quarter, its glory days appear to be over with year-on-year growth non-existent.

- American Eagle Outfitters (NYSE:AEO) declined 17% following its latest quarterly earnings, despite topping consensus estimates and raising its annual revenue forecast. Concerns about margins weighed on the stock.
