The S&P 500 Index ($SPX) (SPY) Monday closed down -0.04%, the Dow Jones Industrials Index ($DOWI) (DIA) closed down -0.03%, and the Nasdaq 100 Index ($IUXX) (QQQ) closed down -0.05%.
Stock indexes on Monday closed slightly lower as the 10-year T-note yield rose to a 4-1/2 month high. Stronger-than-expected US economic news and recent hawkish Fed comments have curbed expectations for Fed rate cuts.
