An
early rebound for U.S. stocks petered out by the end of the day,
leaving indexes close to flat.
The S&P 500 edged down by 0.1% Thursday, coming off one of its
worst days of the year after the Federal Reserve said it may
deliver fewer cuts to interest rates in 2025 than earlier
thought. The Dow Jones Industrial Average inched up by less than
0.1%, and the Nasdaq composite slipped 0.1%.
Treasury yields were mixed in the bond market following reports
showing the U.S. economy may be stronger than expected, but
manufacturing may be contracting again.
