The stock market witnessed mixed performances as investors shifted their focus away from high-flying technology shares towards more rate-sensitive names. Megacap technology stocks, including companies like Meta, Apple, Netflix, and Microsoft, faced selling pressure, with semiconductor stocks particularly affected by possible trade restrictions. This caused the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite to decline. Nevertheless, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was not affected by this trend as it saw gains driven by strong performance in UnitedHealth.
