This is the Marketplace Minute. I'm Justin Ho. Stocks closed down on Tuesday. The Dow and the Nasdack fell 1%. The S&P lost 7.10%.

The number of job openings didn't change much between January and February.

That's according to the Labor Department.

Overall, the number of job openings has fallen almost 30% over the last couple years, but it's still higher than it was before the pandemic.

That said, the number of people quitting their jobs has pretty much returned to where it was in 2019.

GM says auto sales fell 1.5% last quarter, compared at the same time a year ago.

That was thanks in part to production issues that limited the amount of mid-sized trucks and vans available to commercial customers.

And factory orders rose almost 1.5% in February, according to the Commerce Department.

That was thanks to orders of machinery, computers, aircraft, and other durable goods.
