Wall Street optimism faded as traders digested mixed economic data and took stock of shifting geopolitical risks amid a flurry of social media posts from the US President. Yields fell across the globe.
The S&P 500 Index slid 0.3% after notching its second intraday record of 2026 on Wednesday while the Nasdaq 100 struggled to hold onto a small gain. Stocks lost their edge after posts from President Donald Trump sent homebuilders and defense contractors tumbling. Valero Energy Corp. led shares of refiners higher after Trump said Venezuela would turn over millions of barrels of oil to the US.
RTX Corp. slid more than 5% after the market closed as Trump threatened to cut ties with its Raytheon defense unit.
A rally in US Treasuries was dampened after US services activity expanded in December at the fastest pace in more than a year, fueled by solid demand growth and a pickup in hiring. Earlier data from ADP Research was better received by the bond market after it showed hiring in December rose at a moderate pace, pointing to sluggish momentum heading into 2026. The yield on 10-year notes fell to 4.14%, with rates also moving lower across most of Europe.
