Drops for Nvidia and other Big Tech companies were offset by
gains in health care, energy and other sectors, leaving U.S.
stock indexes mixed.
The S&P 500 wound up with a gain of 0.2% after spending most of
the day lower. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.9%, and
weakness for tech stocks dragged the Nasdaq composite down 0.4%.
Treasury yields rose ahead of updates coming later in the week
on inflation. The bond market has been driving much of Wall
Street’s action recently as hopes dim for coming cuts to
interest rates by the Federal Reserve.
