Top Movers of the Day
Wednesday's market faltered late due to semiconductor weakness, notably Super Micro Computer's disappointing earnings. Selling intensified, erasing earlier gains. Midday pressure came from a weak $42 billion 10-year Treasury note auction. The S&P 500 couldn't sustain above its 100-day moving average, facing technical resistance. Jobless claims data due Thursday adds to market uncertainty. Disney, Airbnb, and Lyft reported mixed earnings, contributing to market volatility. The 10-year Treasury yield rose to 3.96%, and the Cboe Volatility Index increased to 27.8, reflecting ongoing market turbulence.
