US Stocks Sink On Tech-Led Selloff, Treasury Yields Surge Again: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
Mixed earnings have led to a dampened risk appetite in the market, with Microsoft's positive report contrasting Alphabet's underwhelming cloud revenue growth. The focus now shifts to Meta Platforms, which is due to report after the close. Analysts stress the importance of robust corporate profit growth to sustain valuations, especially with rising bond yields. The S&P 500 Index broke a five-session losing streak, while the Nasdaq Composite recorded gains for the second consecutive session. In premarket trading, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust slipped 0.34% and the Invesco QQQ ETF fell 0.55%.
