Stocks Slip as Banking and Tech Sectors Feel the Pinch
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Stocks fell from all-time highs, with a slide in banks leading the decline, as investors positioned themselves for the US inflation data and Federal Reserve meeting on Wednesday. The KBW Bank Index sank 2%, with JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Citigroup Inc. among the big names hit. Nvidia Corp. led losses in semiconductor firms after news that the US is considering more limits on China’s access to chips needed for artificial intelligence.

The decline in stocks reflects investor concerns about the potential impact of higher interest rates and inflation on the economy. The rout in banks and semiconductor firms highlights the sensitivity of these sectors to changes in monetary policy and geopolitical tensions.

The market is becoming increasingly challenging, with BlackRock’s Koesterich expecting more volatility into the fall. Investors are seeking safer assets, driving Treasuries and the dollar higher. Apple Inc. was a bright spot, climbing to a record after showcasing AI-related features at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference.

The decline in stocks comes ahead of the Federal Reserve meeting on Wednesday, where investors expect a hike in interest rates. The US inflation data, also due this week, will provide further insight into the state of the economy. As investors navigate the uncertain landscape, market sentiment is expected to remain challenging into the fall.
