NEW YORK—Wall Street’s main indexes fell on Tuesday, with the S&P 500 confirming a correction, as the Ukraine-Russia crisis kept investors on edge after Russian President Vladimir Putin recognized two breakaway regions in the country and ordered troops to the area.
The S&P 500 ended down more than 10 percent from its Jan. 3 closing record high. A correction is confirmed when an index closes 10 percent or more below its record closing level.
