The S&P 500 Index ($SPX) (SPY) today is down -0.49%, the Dow Jones Industrials Index ($DOWI) (DIA) is down -0.02%, and the Nasdaq 100 Index ($IUXX) (QQQ) is down -1.25%.
U.S. stock indexes this morning are moderately lower on economic concerns after today’s reports on Mar ADP employment and Mar ISM services point to a slowdown in the economy. Also, weakness in chipmakers is leading technology stocks lower after Japan joined the U.S. and Netherlands in restricting exports of chipmaking gear to China. However, a more than +3% jump in Johnson & Johnson limits losses in the Dow Jones Industrials.
