Wall Street began September on a sour note on Tuesday, with all three major U.S. stock indexes ending lower as rising oil prices and higher bond yields put investors on edge.
The S&P 500 fell 0.71% to 7,631.95, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.01% to 26,099.77. The Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.78% to 52,772.49, according to preliminary data cited by Reuters.
