+700pt swing on Dow today!
“ The Dow Jones Industrial Average cut a nearly 500-point intraday loss Monday as technology names like Microsoft rallied amid falling interest rates.
The blue-chip average rose 238.06 points, or 0.7%, to 34,049.46. The index was down as much as 488 points earlier in the session. The S&P 500 ticked up 0.6% to 4,296.12. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite gained 1.3% at 13,004.85.
Concerns about a global economic slowdown amid Covid outbreaks in China sent interest rates lower. The 10-year Treasury yield pulled back to the 2.8% level.
Tech shares rebounded as rates fell, providing support to the major averages. Microsoft rose 2.4%, the second-biggest gainer on the Dow. Google-parent Alphabet also gained nearly 2.9%, and Facebook-parent Meta added about 1.6% ahead of quarterly earnings reports slated for later this week.”
