Stocks mostly hold gains after European bailout

NEW YORK -- The stock market has mostly held on to its big comeback after investors set aside worries about Europe's debt struggles.

Major indexes have ended mixed Tuesday. The market posted its biggest gain in more than a year on Monday on relief over the European Union's bailout program for weak countries like Greece.

Analysts say Tuesday's more modest moves signal that Monday's 405-point gain in the Dow was based on more that just euphoria.

At the close, the Dow Jones industrials are down 37 at 10,748. The Standard & Poor's 500 index is down 4 at 1,156. The Nasdaq composite index is up less than 1 at 2,375.

Advancing stocks outpaced those that fell on New York Stock Exchange. Volume totaled 1.5 billion compared with 1.9 billion Monday.
