U.S. Stock Performance: Financials Boost Dow, Tech Drags Nasdaq

The three major U.S. stock indices closed on mixed notes on Monday, with the Dow rising by 358.67 points, or 0.86%, to close at 42,297.12 points. The S&P 500 index edged up 0.16% to 5,836.22 points. However, the Nasdaq fell by 73.53 points, or 0.38%, to 19,088.10 points due to ongoing sell-offs in technology stocks.

The rise in U.S. Treasury yields put pressure on the technology sector. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note surpassed 4.76%, reaching a new high since November 2023. This high yield environment diminishes the appeal of technology companies, leading to some sell-offs.
