Despite brief forays into the black, the Dow and S&P 500 ultimately finished lower for their fifth loss in the last six trading sessions. As the 10-year Treasury yield tested 5% again, the Nasdaq suffered its worst single-session percentage drop since February, with Alphabet (GOOGL) weighing especially heavy on investor sentiment after a cloud-related post-earnings dip. All eyes are now on tech behemoths Meta Platforms (META) and IBM (IBM), slated to report earnings after the close.
