European stocks pull back after winning streak

European stocks sagged Tuesday, on track for their first loss in four sessions as investors step back before this week’s Dutch election, the Federal Reserve meeting and developments as the UK moves closer to calling the start of the Brexit process, MarketWatch reports.

The Stoxx Europe 600 index fell 0.3% to 373.69, giving up a modest gain earlier in the session, with only the healthcare, consumer goods and utilities groups moving higher. Volume may be lighter than usual Tuesday as a blizzard bears down on New York City.
