United States Stock Market Index - Quote - Chart - Historical Data (2024)

US stock futures edged lower on Thursday as traders assessed another hotter-than-expected consumer inflation print, while awaiting Thursday’s producer price index report. In regular trading on Wednesday, the Dow fell 1%, the S&P 500 dropped 0.95% and the Nasdaq Composite lost 0.84%. Ten out of the 11 S&P sectors ended lower, led to the downside by real estate, utilities and materials. Sharp declines were seen from mega-cap tech names such as Tesla (-2.9%), AMD (-2.1%) and Apple (-1.1%). Those losses came as a hot March inflation reading raised concerns that the Federal Reserve may implement fewer rate cuts than expected, with markets now seeing only two rate reductions instead of three this year. Equities also came under pressure from rallying Treasury yields, with the benchmark 10-year yield surging above 4.5%. Moreover, investors braced for the start of the first quarter earnings season as major banks are set to report their latest results on Friday.
