REUTERS\/Shannon Stapleton<\/figcaption><p>The Russell 1000 value index, which is heavily comprised of cyclical stocks such as financials and energy, added about 0.2% while the Russell 1000 growth index, which includes technology stocks, dropped about 1.4%.<\/p>\n<p>That rotation helped lift the Dow Jones Industrial Average to an intraday record high, led by UnitedHealth Group and Goldman Sachs Group, both up more than 2%.<\/p>\n<p>The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasuries crossed 1.75% to hit a 14-month high a day after the Fed projected the strongest growth in nearly 40 years as the COVID-19 crisis winds down, and also repeated its pledge to keep its target interest rate near zero for years to come..<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Fed just saying they are not going to raise rates until 2023 really means nothing,\u201d said Tim Ghriskey, chief investment strategist at Inverness Counsel in New York. \u201cThe Fed is on the sidelines, but if bond yields keep going up, that is what really hurts the economy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Apple Inc and Amazon.com Inc dropped more than 2%. Tech and other growth stocks are particularly sensitive to rising yields because their value rests heavily on earnings far into the future, which are discounted more deeply when bond yields rise.<\/p>\n<p>A recent $1.9 trillion spending stimulus sparked fears of rising inflation and contributed to the jump in longer-end Treasury yields.<\/p>\n<p>Underscoring the staggered recovery in the labor market, data showed the number of Americans filing for jobless benefits unexpectedly rose last week.<\/p>\n<p>A separate report indicated the Philly Fed business index jumped more than expected, to its highest level since 1973.<\/p>\n<p>In midafternoon trading on Thursday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 0.49% at 33,176.67 points, while the S&amp;P 500 lost 0.37% to 3,959.43.<\/p>\n<p>The Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.46% to 13,328.11.<\/p>\n<p>The S&amp;P 500 financial sector index, sensitive to the economic outlook, rose almost 2%, while the industrial index climbed almost 1%. The technology index fell 2.3%.<\/p>\n<p>Accenture jumped about 1.9% after the IT consulting firm raised its full-year revenue forecast and reported second-quarter revenue above analysts\u2019 estimates, as more businesses used its digital services to shift operations to the cloud.<\/p>\n<p>Dollar General Corp dropped more than 5% after the retailer forecast annual same-store sales and profit below estimates, indicating that a pandemic-fueled rush for lower-priced goods may be waning faster than expected.<\/p>\n<p>AMC Entertainment jumped almost 5% after the movie theater operator said it would have 98% of its U.S. locations open from Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 1.69-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 1.51-to-1 ratio favored decliners.<\/p>\n<p>The S&amp;P 500 posted 84 new 52-week highs and no new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 208 new highs and 20 new lows.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/usa-stocks\/us-stocks-nasdaq-slumps-as-bond-yield-surge-hurts-tech-valuations-idUSL1N2LG2C2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Reuters) &#8211;
