• Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq all close lower as tech selloff bleeds across market
  After an initial bump in the first hour of trading, stocks...

  After an initial bump in the first hour of trading, stocks spent the second half of Thursday trending lower and lower. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was in positive territory for most of the day, but finished the day lower.

  
  

  Tech stocks were one of the big losers of the day. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite fell more than the other indexes, ending its streak of four record closes in a row.

  
  

  The main catalyst of the day was earnings from the Big Tech companies. Disappointing earnings from Meta Platforms pushed its stock down more than 11%. Meanwhile, investors were bracing for earnings from Apple and Amazon, which come after the closing bell.

  
  

  The S&P 500 dipped 0.99% to finish the day at 6,822.34, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.57% to close at 23,581.14. The Dow Jones Industrial Average traded down 109.88 points, or 0.23%, to 47,522.12.

American Petroleum Institute President and CEO Mike Sommers welcomed the dialogue and voiced support for bringing the project back. He called its earlier cancellation "one of those marquee examples of a permitting process that was completely abused by the previous administration."
