S&P 500 and Nasdaq Fall, Strained by Tech Pullback and Spike in Yields

On Friday, stocks fell amid a pullback in technology stocks and a jump in U.S. Treasury yields.

The market downturn came after a summit between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping concluded without significant policy breakthroughs, raising concerns among investors.

S&P 500 decreased by 1%
Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.4%
Dow Jones Industrial Average declined by 336 points, or 0.7%

Tech investors took profits following recent gains, leading to notable declines in major chipmakers.

Intel fell 6%, while Advanced Micro Devices and Micron Technology each declined about 5%.

Nvidia was down 4%, and Cerebras Systems, which had surged 68% on Thursday after its Nasdaq debut, fell 4%.
