U.S. stocks ended lower Wednesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling almost 300 points, as concerns over troubled Credit Suisse Group CS added to worries about the banking system. The Dow DJIA closed 0.9% lower, while the S&P 500 SPX shed 0.7% and the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite COMP edged up around 0.1%, according to preliminary data from FactSet. The Swiss National Bank said Wednesday that it will provide liquidity to Credit Suisse “if necessary.” The S&P 500’s financial sector slumped 2.8% Wednesday, one of the index’s worst-performing sectors along with energy and materials and industrials.
The energy sector is off to a lower start, pressured by weakness in the underlying commodities and the major market futures. U.S stocks are sharply lower in the pre-market amid fresh worries of a banking crisis along with a larger-than-expected fall in February’s retail sales.
WTI and Brent crude oil are trading down as concerns over Credit Suisse’s impact on the world markets outweighed hopes of a Chinese demand recovery. Oil was higher after China released data showing their economic activity had increased within the first two months of the year, as consumption and infrastructure investment drove the recovery from the country’s COVID-19 curbs. Additionally, a stronger dollar also weighed in on prices. Investors are waiting to see whether today’s EIA inventory data comes in line with yesterday’s 1.2 million barrel increase reported by the API.
Natural gas futures are lower, tracking losses in crude and on forecasts for warmer weather in the near term.
