  The Biden administration on Tuesday said it will impose travel bans on Israeli settlers and Palestinians who have committed violence in the West Bank. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the new policy will target “individuals believed to have been involved in undermining peace, security, or stability” in the West Bank, where violence has spiked during Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza. In October, President Biden said Israeli settlers were “attacking Palestinians in places that they’re entitled to be” and has reportedly pressured Israeli officials to take more action against settlers.

  U.S. stocks finished mostly lower on Tuesday, with the Dow logging back-to-back losses for the first time in nearly a month, while a rally in mega-cap technology stocks helped boost the Nasdaq. Apple Inc.’s AAPL gains on Tuesday saw it end the session with a market capitalization north of $3 trillion for the first time since early August, according to Dow Jones Market Data. The S&P 500 SPX fell by 2.60 points, or 0.1%, to 4,567.18. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA fell by 79.88 points, or 0.2%, to 36,124.56. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq Composite COMP gained 44.42 points, or 0.3%, to 14,229.91. U.S. stocks rallied hard in November, with the S&P 500 rising more than 11% for its best monthly gain of the year, and one of its best monthly advances over the past decade. But markets have pulled back early this week, raising questions about whether the rally can continue, market strategists said.
